Centre Manager would like some A boards to help direct people to the car park more clearly. Quote has been received for £250 for one A board. Tina Bishop will ask her husband to make something the centre can use. Bill Bristow suggested contacting Isle of Wight radio to help advertise the event and flyers going in the newspapers delivered by Lane End Welcome store.
- Any other business
Nigel Mclean – suggested fundraising by working with sports teams on events.
Tina Bishop – previous discussion about fundraising from outdoor cinema, could this be looked at again? Discussion was has about issues with access to the park and ticketing.
Keith Cook – happy to donate old swing board for parking sign at summer festival.
Sarah Portwine – would like to suggest increasing hourly hall hire to £15 per hour as of 1st July. Most classes use the hall for longer than one hour and some use storage.

Bryan Jones – online entry for races would be more efficient and entry fee can be increased to absorb any fees. Runners can also register on the day.
