Wolds Gliding Club is run by volunteers - which means everyone mucks in with jobs around the airfield. This last weekend we suspended flying and spent the whole weekend doing all those jobs that have mounted up over the last year (or ten) - including:
Filled potholes and smoothed parts of the runway
Cleared the glider hangar (and hoovered it!!!)
Cleared out the sliding door tracks
Cleared the tug hangar
Regravelled the road into the club caravan site
Regravelled the peri-track where it flooded
Emptied the loft
Cleaned the control bus
Reorganised the ballast weights and various other equipment on the control bus
Washed and polished the 2 seat gliders (4 of them)
Washed and serviced the trailers (4 of them)
Done an ARC on one K21
Done several other jobs on the same K21
Cleared out a load of old computer equipment
Litter picked around the site perimeter
Cleaned the winch
Removed a load of ivy from some walls
Cleared a load of brashwood from around the campsite
Cleared the main entrance way which has got a bit muddy
As you can see, this is the first time many of our members have ever seen a vacuum cleaner :-)
