Help needed fitting out new clubhouse

Many of you probably noticed the fact that the new clubhouse at Porterstown is now almost complete. Unfortunately the government withdrew the grant that had been promised from the Lottery funding due to the economic crisis.

Since the club no longer has enough money to pay the building contractor for all the work agreed, the club has been forced to agree that a number of tasks required to complete the clubhouse will not now be done by the contractor. The tasks involve things like installing electrical fixtures, plumbing of the showers in the dressing rooms, installing seating etc..

It would be a shame not to be able to use the clubhouse when it is so near to being complete. Unfortunately all possible sources of funding have been tapped already, so the club is hoping that some parents who have trades will volunteer to step into the breech. The trades required are electricians, plumbers, carpenters and tile fitters.

If anyone is able to help, they should contact Tony Jordan, 5 Castleknock Meadows, ph 8217879 or 087 6535354.
