This is the club’s annual Surplus Equipment sale, and it will take place at the club house. If you have items of surplus equipment cluttering up the shack, the garage or the lounge, this is the perfect opportunity to consider bringing them along to the sale.
Anyone planning to sell high priced items over £50 are invited to provide details to Dave G8ZZK –
davej_lee@btinternet.com – with a brief description. A list will be compiled and sent to members a few
days in advance of the sale so there is some prior knowledge of the items being provided for sale.
The committee has asked me to remind members that items sold should be for members use only, and
not sold on for profit following the sale.
