Swimming Pool News (MADSPA) - Spring 2011 Update

We were fortunate that Paul Greenwood read the article in the "Echo" following our break-in and offered the help of his father, Roy and himself in replacing the stolen water pipes in the changing rooms and toilets. The work should be completed in the near future.

Two doors were kicked in and are beyond repair; plus the boiler room door requires a new locking mechanism. Also a new gas pipe (approx. 5 metres long, is needed) as this was taken, meaning there can be no warm water until it is replaced. This was not mild vandalism by local youths which occurs from time to time, but organized crime by persons who know what they are looking for.

We will be organizing several "tidy-up" weekends during March so please watch out for notices around the village seeking your help. The pool tank needs scrubbing and a crack repaired. There is also a lot of painting and cleaning required and any help would be much appreciated.

Our aim is to be open by the Easter holiday should the weather be nice, so lots of preparation is needed.

There is to be a Fashion Show, by Lincs Fashions on Wed 23 March at 7.30 pm in the Village Hall. Tickets are £2.50 from any committee member or on the door. Bring your own drink and glass.

MADSPA A.G.M. is on Mon 28 March (7.30 pm) in the Pavilion, adjacent to the Pool.
