Posted by: Charlie
Hello all I'm going to be doing a Polo boat fixing afternoon and will be showing people how to fix the boats. I would love the help as there is a lot that needs to be done, it will be a great way to learn about the boats, and see how they are looked after, and we will be building the new goal and helmets. So if youÔÇÖre free after 3:30 on Wednesday come down to give a hand, even if it's just for a short time. Charlie.
