Saturday 25th April Big Breakfast - The profit raised from the breakfast will go towards the new mower fund. The mowing and most of the ground maintenance is carried out by volunteers, mainly by members and supporters of the Carhampton Cricket Club. The grass field is mown reguarly throught the season and takes many man-hours to keep it in good condition, therefore we are looking to upgrade the mower to one with a wider cut to reduce the overall workload.
