And finally the end of the roof.......


Observant Members will have noticed the Bridge club-rooms building and more importantly the roof and turrets have been restored to a state close to that when the building was constructed in the early seventies.
Richard Wagstaff has been responsible for the project - from the finding of a suitable contractor, writing the grants to obtain the finance and then overseeing the work process - thank you Richard. This project was the repair of the sloping parts of the roof and turrets and then re-coating the Decramastic tiles which cover the sloping roof. Thanks also go to Jol Glyde for the repair and sealing of the flat parts of the roof and and the barge boards edging the roof which was a prerequisite for the turret repair. Together they have refurbished the roof such that the Club should not have any concern about problems for a considerable period.

The Club has to thank the three Charities which together equally contributed three quarters of the cost of the project - WEL Energy Trust, Trust Waikato and Pub Charity Ltd. Without them the the job would be still waiting to commence so many thanks to each of them from a very grateful Bridge Club
