During this
close season Wick
Academy re-furbished the main North stand. This involved totally stripping off the old stand
sheeting, undercoating and re-painting the steel-work, stripping out the wiring
and stripping out the old seats that have done us proud for almost 14 years but
were really starting to get rusty and un-safe to sit on. The stand was then
re-clad with new sheeting, new wiring and lighting installed, the floor and
walls painted and finally new black and white seating fitted.
The sequence of photos below
shows the work as it was completed.
The old stand sheeting being removed
The old seats are removed
The old seating almost gone
Finally there as Committiee member George Ross removes the last of the seat fixing plates and Alan R Farquhar (as busy as ever) reads the paper!
The steel-work is sand-blasted, under-coated and re-painted, and the first of the new purlings are fitted
The new sheeting starts to get fitted
The floor and stand walls are painted
And the new black and white seats are finally fitted
