Matters Arising

VH raised the issue of the proposed improvements for the Cricket Pavilion.  She suggested that this should be a Community Project and that local tradesmen may be willing to help on a voluntary basis.  She also suggested that sources of funding may be available (Ryan who runs the football classes may be able to help with this).  Agreed to discuss in further detail at the next main management committee meeting.

VH suggested that the New Years Eve party be reinstated.  This would be open to all WVCA members and a small charge levied to cover the cost of a disco.  Alcohol would not be sold but those attending could bring their own bottles.  It was agreed to support this initiative although concerns were expressed about local residents being disturbed by loud music.

FT raised the issue of insurance for the Children's Fun Day.  WVCA's insurer (Marsh Insurance) had quoted her £50 for this but she had not been able to get back in touch with the agent dealing with the matter.  DP to check with Marsh Insurance head office.
