New Website Now Live

29 Dec 2010 11:41 AM | Willis

The New ELYC went live this morning, the site has been designed to be easy to navigate and to add additional functionality and capability both to aid both the running of the club and also to our members.

For the first time ELYC membership is online and we have also brought the online bookings for training and events into hte same website.

There is a member section which requires members to log in to see, and includes discussion forums and other member specific information. From a management viewpoint it is easier to manage communications and membership and financial information as this can all be done within the management section of the site.

As many of you will have noticed, our clubhouse roof is leaking, with tubs in the café and buckets in the attic, it’s clear that it now needs to be replaced to protect our much-loved clubhouse for the future.

The good news is that work is underway. Planning permission has been granted, and the project is expected to cost around £50,000. We’ve already secured a £5,000 grant from the North Berwick Trust, are applying for more funding, and will carefully use club reserves while keeping the club financially secure.

Fundraising will play an important part, and we’re keen to make this a fun and engaging process for everyone. Our target for this year, 2026, is £5,000. There are lots of ways to get involved
