equipment was found. Mowers and groundskeeping tools and storage containers to put them were organised. Portable units for changing and the all-important bar were found. The Club did not live in the lap of luxury but it did survive. After a mammoth fundraising effort covering nearly two years, the rebuilding of the clubhouse commenced in 2007 in time for the 2008 summer, a real 'Phoenix from the Ashes' moment for the local community. Recent years Since the rebuild of the Pavilion and its opening on 13 July 2008, the club's membership has increased, particularly at junior level where the club has a huge base. Onfield results have also improved with three promotions in a row for both the Saturday Kent League sides, meaning that for the 2013 summer both will play in the second tier of the Kent League - the highest level the club has reached for several decades. 2012 also saw a promotion for the Saturday 4th team, and for the Sunday Development League team.
