| CAR PARKING |
The left hand side if the front cark park, nearest the building, belongs to Xen Shots and is used by their clients. The far side (right hand side) belongs to the club.
Only park of the right hand side and don't park on the left hand side. This applies at all times as Xen Shots operates in the evening as well as day time.
The committee is considering the best way to manage the front car park for those who need to be close to the entrance.
