Recycling of bottles and cans from the bar.

Would anyone be prepared to oversee this by checking the bottle and can collection bins are emptied regularly. Speak to Jackie if you can help.
There are always members willing to take a small bin and place them in their own green bins at home. Returning the empty bin when they next come to the club.

Dishwasher

Can the last person leaving the club on a Thursday night after roll up please turn on the dishwasher. Check there is a tab in place (kept under sink) and press 2 buttons ‘ON & START’.
There is no need to change the programme that it is on.

Cleaning Rota

Many thanks to all those who have taken their turn already – you’ve done a great job.
