News for Members
It has been brought
to our attention person (s) unknown have been carrying out estates work at Langham, eg clearing brambles, paths etc. Whilst
we encourage all members to assist in maintaining our waters, this must be agreed with the Estates committee team before
work commences. This is to ensure everyones stays 'safe' and the correct work is carried out.
Club Rules Please note that unauthorised wading will result in suspension or expulsion from the club. This particularly
applies to the Match Pit which is part of a working quarry. If you have equipment stuck in a tree etc. contact the bailiffs
who will help organise safe removal/recovery.
We
have a number of members who have pleaded ignorance when brought before the Committee. All members have a Rule Book.
Please read it!
Access to Waters
We have been asked by landowners to ensure that the access to the
waters is secured at all times. Please do not leave any gates unlocked once you have
passed through.
