During the year, added the chairman further amenities would be provided at the ground. The first job undertaken would be reading, laying out, marking off, numbering and levelling all camp sites. Additions to supplement the present hot water system would be carried out by installing another 200-gallon circulator so that a plentiful supply of hot water would be assured for the hot showers, baths, wash-basins, laundry, etc., also a telephone would be installed before the season began. The chairman further stated that' all amenities, including hot points and iron plugs, would be free in the camp this year and that campers should enjoy a good holiday at a small cost to themselves.
