Working Bee Report

Another productive, and very sociable, working bee was held at the start of May.

Stacking firewood under the lodge has always been a huge task. It's still a big undertaking but we keep finding better ways of doing it with fewer people

John  gets the wood ready

Alan loads the chute

Hope the logs stop in time

and hand over hand

and still at least 4 more pairs of hands from here until it is stacked

The kitchen and all its contents were cleaned

Probably Nikki & Hayley, but hard workers in the kitchen anyway

Final touches were made to the spa area

John B working on partitions for the new toilet

The lockers outside the spa area were given a light facelift

Nigel & Mel transforming the once dingy lockers

Other jobs included

• converting Room 1 and Room 4 to queen beds only (see more)
• 1980s vintage posters in the foyer
• moved the TV in the games room to the TV room in preparation for a new 65" TV and soundbar for the games room (see more)
• storing dry goods (cereal, toilet paper etc)
• neatening shelf in Room 2 and adding more coat hooks
• repaired grout in the hearth tiles
• cleaned bathroom ceilings as needed
• prepare the spa for the season
• update software for lodge internet

If you haven't been to a working bee, or not for a while, we'd love to see you next year. Help keep our lodge in great shape.
