Red Letter month for Dalton Members of the club are 'driving ' it forward, as exampled by the happenings over the months of April + May.
'Topsoil' Riggers
Ste Rigby earns more than just a few pints as he shifts barrowloads of topsoil for the repair of the damage to the Prince William Inn carpark on the 'Working weekend' Sat 10 April.
Thanks Riggers.
'Rock & Roller' Richy
On Fri 16th April Richy Whitehead literally drives the club forward by, yet again, using a hired roller to roll the square to perfection. Thanks Richy.
(You should see what it does to a 'coke' can !)
Bruce drives backwards.
It's 8.21am on a chilly, but bright Sat 17th April morning as the container arrives promptly and reverses down the difficult slope in front of the pavilion.
Many thanks to Ainscough Metals of Wigan. Excellent service and communication.
Lift off
Ramped into position, the container is lifted off.
Thanks Bruce.
Nearly there
The container is remotely carefully adjusted to drop onto its base - prepared by Dave Spencer & Co. Thanks lads.
Ron's board.
Ron Hurst stands next to the nets and his superbly crafted noticeboard, another Clubmark requirement.
Thanks Ron.
"One man and his son went......."
James uses a borrowed mower on the outfield whilst taking the opportunity of the latest Government initiative for Nursery Practical Education by instructing a trainee groundsman.
Thanks James (Major + Minor).
Tony's kit room !!.
Thanks to Tony Tonge, Dalton's own landfill tip (known as 'The Kit room') has finally been 'landscaped' into a haven of organisation whereby the required kit bag or equipment can now be easily plucked from its stipulated place without disturbing the mega-spiders, Cliff Richard LPs and 30-year-old, mouldy, stinking cricket boxes.
Thanks Tony.
On the next rung
West Lancs District U11s, including Dalton's Ciaran KYLE, line up for their first match of the 2010 season with a friendly against Wigan District U11s at Golborne CC on Mon 3 May.
Ciaran, with his superb bowling action, opened the bowling and finished with excellent figures of 5-0-11-0.
