Many of you will have seen Larry out grooming the trails. Very briefly – He is the guy who has coordinated the grooming team for the last 6 years and has been responsible for the improvement to grooming and the trails in general. Really he has had his hand in everything the club does. Well except posting to the website and the accounting system which I do!!
This nomination is overdue and very well deserved.
