Stone-Picking on Second Ground

This is just a big thank you to those invisible people who have done such a wonderful job clearing the stones from the Second ground. I had the opportunity to cut the grass yesterday before the rain forecast for this week arrives and hit very few small stones in the process. I am hoping that the outfield is going to be very much better in the coming season. You may have also noticed that the nets have received a bit of attention to improve the run-ups and you may or may not notice the fact that the end hedge has been trimmed with more to go in the coming weeks, weather permitting.

Kelvedon and Feering Cricket Club announces it is (again) in the top flight of cricket grounds in Essex

Kelvedon and Feering Cricket Club announces it is (again) in the top flight of cricket grounds in Essex. For the first time we entered the Best Kept Cricket Grounds competition with both our grounds. We were runner-up to Brentwood with the Main Ground and were awarded a Gold Standard for the second ground. But in true Bulldog fashion we are not resting on our laurels. Since the end of the cricket season we have dressed out both of the squares and have top-dressed the second ground outfield. We are hoping that the second ground will be even better next year as a result.

Now here is the rub - the topsoil exercise has thrown up more stones. The grass has now come through and when it is reasonably dry it will be possible to pick the stones. I know that many people walk around the village for exercise - could I ask if it would be possible to take a stroll on the second ground and pick up a few stones while one is about it? The areas where the most stones have shown up are between the railway line and the top of the square and they are showing up greener than the rest of the field at the moment. Please put the stones on the road way next to the rail line (if possible towards the hedge end of the ground).

If you are motivated to help us by doing a half hour stint that would be fantastic – just take yourself down there and climb over the fence (carefully please). Do not worry about picking every little pebble, the main ones I want to get rid of are those over 15-20mm in diameter or thickness or length. The weather looks good at the moment and it would really help if we could get this done within the next ten days so I can give it a little cut before the winter sets in.
