I'm Max Maynard and Grant Maynard.
00:19
I've been involved here for 50 years
00:22
and enjoyed it very much.

Well I came out to build the hall over here on the bank.
00:39
Middle road into Turners Beach.
00:42
After the light plane landed on the beach,
00:45
the second day I was doing it,
00:48
walked down through the booby alleys to see what it was.

00:54
And I thought, well, it wouldn't be a bad place to live,
00:57
so I went up and bought a block up the road and never went home.

01:04

01:11
Len said to me, he said this community wants a football and cricket team,
01:15
you know, in the seaside resort,
01:18
and it would be good for his business too,
01:20
so that's how we started.
