b) Playpark painting of equipment – paint now ordered – will be repainted in the next couple of weeks

c) Grasscutting – KH had spoken to contractor about finishing off the grasscutting – he asked for extra time as his father had died suddenly.

d) Playing field sign – LW looking into this. Will be fixed before Summer fete.

 

4. CCTV

PS had been trying to get the old equipment fixed up and had been putting in cables in the newly completed and cleaned kitchen. He was asked yet again to leave it alone. LW has now ordered a contractor to do the whole job and will be completed on the 19th June in time for the summer fete.

KH is in the process of putting in a policy and procedure document.

 

5. Fundraising & Events

a) Village fete organisation was just about complete. Still working on getting more volunteers for the day – distribution asking for help through the school and by circulating to residents. Next meeting 18th June at Ingleby House.

b) Car boot events – again disappointing with only two (committee members) with stalls. However, they had a good profit even though it was raining. This will take some time to get off the ground but will hopefully grow as time goes on.

c) Advertising of events – banners and posters done. VW not present to report.
