As the 2010 summer and associated cricket season fast approaches, Ashorne and Moreton Morrell Cricket Club is turning its attention to its perennial battle with the maintenance of its picturesque ground.
It is fair to say that most of our grass cutting equipment has seen better days and, as such, the Club is commencing a major fund raising campaign with the ultimate target of buying a replacement outfield mower and a heavy roller for the pitch.
Our first fund raising events will be:
FUND RAISING CAR WASH
This will take place in the car park of Ashorne Village Hall on Sunday 11th April 2010 between 9am and 12 Noon.
Club members will be available to wash the winter grit from your car, whilst you relax with a bacon roll and coffee in the Hall itself!
Then, by kind permission of Mr Darling, the Club is planning to host three Car Boot Sales, on the cricket field, throughout the summer. So, turn out your garage or shed, fill up your boot and come along on the following dates:
CAR BOOT SALES 2010
MONDAY 3rd MAY
Gates generally open at 0730 hours and light breakfast refreshments will be available in the pavilion
As the season approaches, the Club is always on the lookout for new PLAYING and supporting members. Playing membership is open to all ages from aged 13 upwards and to players of all skills and abilities.
