Optimist Food Trailer Renovated

Greensville Optimist Club Leave a comment News

January update: 
The food trailer has had a fairly large renovation this year. New harbroiler and griddle, fryers serviced, roof painted, cupboards painted and repaired, 100lbs of grease removed and new lighting installed. To top it off we came in under budget.

Thank you to all the members who came out to help and especially to Efcom ltd and Grisdale Enterprises for their support.

A great start to 2016, well done Greensville Optimists.
