Jack Perks Film Show at Chatsworth Golf Club Thursday 11th Jan 2024

Jack Perks has been in touch to say he is having a screening of Britain's Hidden Fishes at Chatsworth Golf Club which may be of interest to members. Some of the film was shot in Derbyshire and the surrounding East Midlands. Narrated by Jeremy Wade and filmed by Jack Perks it's a 1 hour documentary on UK fish.
The grayling film Jack filmed at Cromford recently should be out in a couple weeks.

Cromford Meadows Barrier and Rugby Club Gate Padlocks

The code for the padlock on the gate on the rugby club road is now 19140.

The code for the high barrier onto Cromford Meadows is now 19180 - unlikely any member will need it except to let a motorhome out that's been locked in!

You need to push on the padlock to release the mechanism.

Please make sure you lock it properly and don't leave it with the code in place!

Now is the time to pull up Himalayan Balsam - before it flowers. Snap it so it can’t re-root.


Upcoming Work Party July 11 (from Steve Dalby)

The club is currently reviewing work party attendance in accordance with the clubs membership rules.
We are aware that some members haven't, for the last two years at least, attended a work party or contributed to the club in some other way. There will be another opportunity this year to make that contribution.
On 11th July help will be required to clear the track from the aqueduct towards Doars Glide to enable access for the stocking vehicle.
This will include clearing the track of vegetation before and after strimming and possibly helping to carry fish to the river, and potentially other tasks.
This club relies on the cooperation and involvement of its members to maintain the banks, fishing quality and access. At the moment many members help the committee to carry out the majority of tasks. If you haven't managed to help out before, now is your chance. Please notify Steve Dalby or Steve Hannath if you are able to attend. Its good fun, rewarding, gives you the opportunity meet other members and put something back into a great club which is, let's face it, ridiculously cheap.
We look forward to seeing you.
If you have already done something this season, many thanks. This working party is for those that have not the chance to join in and support our club. Meet at the lodge at 10am on 11th July.
