JOBS @ CHOB
Do you have a few hours to spare every week? We have two immediate job vacancies that need to be filled: we are looking for a Sunday Sweet Shop Manager as well as monthly Ground Maintenance help.
In June 2016 Helen Strudwick will be stepping down as our Treasurer so we'll be looking for someone to step up and hand over during the season. At the same time we are planning to break down the role into three or four parts.
If you would like to help please contact Vince Kerr or Mike Vandenberg for more information.
