**GRIZZLY HQ ANNOUNCEMENT**

You all would have no doubt seen the major changes to our club rooms we have made over the last few years.

Well, we have been at it again in the off-season ticking off another item of our club room upgrade plan. This time we have removed and replaced the carpet and curtains, and even added a new electric blind to the sliding door, going out to the deck we built a couple of years ago.

As with most projects, there is a list of people to thank. So a massive thank you to:-
- The Lion Foundation
- Paula from Harrisons NZ Curtains & Blinds
- Shane from Carpet Court Dunedin
- Also, a massive shout out and thank you to the crew of about 30 people who helped remove the carpet and the very stubborn under-lay.

If you can, please support the people and businesses who support us at G.I.

Grizzly HQ at Miller Park is one of the best hospitality venues in town, for all manner of celebrations and fundraising events. So if you are looking for a great venue, then check out all the details at https://girugby.co.nz/a/tppojGV
