HOT TOPICS
AGM 11th November '11
Well it was worth just to enjoy the food - and there was plenty. In fact so much that some of it went down to St Johns in the Wilderness to supplement the Remembrance Day service refreshments.
There was a review of what's beena cracking year fronted of course by the park activities (see below and the next page) and yet on top of everything Liz still manages to publish a fantastic newsletter four times a year. What would you like to put into the December issue or what would you like to read about.Calendars -They're out and you don't want to be left without, so buy yours now
The 2012 calendars are receiving fantastic applauds so make sure you're not the one who doesn't have a copy and doesn't know whats in them.
Feedback on the works carried out has been very positive - if you haven't already visited the new park, please try to call in and take a look at the new equipment and sensory garden.
The
park is now much more visible from the road, with the carved animals
leading the way in up the path. A stone monolith has been installed at
the beginning of November, again to emphasise the presence of the park.
Replacement of the shelter
Our
observant readers may have noticed that the large green shelter on the
site of the park, overlooking the main road, has recently disappeared.
Unfortunately it was in very poor repair and was becoming increasingly
dangerous. It will shortly be replaced by a brand new shelter being
constructed of green oak by Calderdale Council craftsmen.
