The ground is marked out, at least some of the piles have been driven into the peat ready for the extension and the loo that used to be attached to the existing ladies' changing room has been knocked down. For the time being the old clubhouse will still be quite usable as the extension will be built up behind and around it.
Ladies can use the brick loo block behind the clubhouse and extension.
The work should be finished well before the start of sailing in March 1998. Most of the money to fund the extension has come from an English Sports Council Lottery Fund grant and a smaller one from South Cambridgeshire District Council. The grants have been made possible by the hard work of members of the club, preparing plans and applications. Nearly all the work has been done by Rodney Bryant and Brian Pratt. The whole of the present clubhouse area will be one large clubroom with a kitchen area.
