Clubrooms and Showers
We need to look after our Surf Club. This applies to EVERYONE using the surf club. If everyone looks after our Club we all get the benefits.This might include:
- hanging your wet wetsuits up on the rail provided in the changing rooms. Do not leave your wetsuits in a wet smelly pile on the floor as it is inconsiderate to other club members. Wetsuits left on the floor may be removed.
- if the shower starts flooding trying to unblock it, but definitely TURNING THE SHOWER OFF as otherwise the club gets wrecked as water gets everywhere.
- please make an effort to turn the shower taps off tightly so they do not drip.
- putting all your rubbish and food scraps in the bins. This makes the club a much more enjoyable place to be.
