CLUB FACILITIES - CLUBHOUSE |
The Clubhouse was largely rebuilt in 1994. On the ground floor there are ladies and gents changing and toilet facilities, a disabled toilet, a race office a sail store and safety equipment store. Access to the Sail Store is through the right hand front door of the Clubhouse. When locked, this door can be opened via the lounge. The Safety Equipment store is on the west side of the Clubhouse and is accessed externally. The keys are on the large wooden key fob. The first floor has a large lounge with a kitchen and servery area, bar and balcony. Members in wet gear should not use the carpeted area of the lounge or the soft seats.
Clubhouse key: A key safe has been installed next to the Clubhouse main entrance door; this contains a key on a tether which can be used to unlock the door. This has been installed to facilitate more flexible access to the Clubhouse and stop the need for keys to be issued to members. Instructions for use are here: Key Safe instructions. The code for the safe is available from the Club Secretary via email, and will be mailed to members on joining and renewal, and by newsletter should any in year change take place.
The Board do not propose to change the lock itself at the moment; existing key holders may continue to access the Clubhouse with their existing keys as normal, or by using the key in the safe.
If anyone has problems using the key safe, then please do let us know: secretary@chanonry.org.uk
Catering is provided for major events. At other times tea, coffee, soft drinks and snacks are available on a self-service basis; please put the appropriate money in the honesty box provided. The bar operates on an occasional licence and thus can only open for the sale of alcoholic beverages on a limited number of occasions each year.
The Clubhouse may be used for Club members for private functions – a charge is made for this. For details please contact social@chanonry.org.uk.
There are four main Notice Boards in the Clubhouse. The larger downstairs board is used for boat and equipment sales, racing results and notices of forthcoming sailing events. If you wish to advertise your boat/equipment for sale, place a dated notice on this board. There is a Training Notice Board by the door to the Race Office. On the upstairs notice board is the “Harbouring Heritage” exhibition, with a display in words and pictures telling the story of Fortrose Harbour and its environs. Board (ex-Committee) minutes are available in a folder in the bookcase below the upstairs noticeboard and also on the Club website.
The health and safety notice board is directly opposite the main entrance door and contains a copy of the health and safety policy including the risk assessments and child protection policy. Please note the following extract that applies to all members:
"While health and safety policy is set by the Board, promoting health and safety is the responsibility of every member and it is up to the member to decide whether or not to take part in Club activities.
