Club update 16th Feb
Cheval committee would like to pass on their respects to the Scarff family on the recent passing of Arthur Scarff and also to the Goodwin family on the recent passing of Tony Goodwin. Both Arthur and Tony would have been well known to many Cheval members and both gentlemen were very supportive of Cheval over many years. May they rest in peace.
There is lots happening clubwise at the moment and memberships are coming in thick and fast so hopefully this mail captures all that is going on so you can update your diaries and not miss any of the action.
Well done to members who have been out representing Cheval at the NER winter league.
