Next Groundforce Meeting - Saturday 11 July
We will not be meeting on the first Saturday of July, but we hope to meet on Saturday 11 July from 10.00 am to 1.00 pm. It will be a good time to prepare for judging of Crosby in Bloom (Wednesday 15 July), and give the grounds a good tidy-up, plus planting of the garden for reflection.
Also on Thursday 9 and Friday 10 July we are hoping that Simon our wood carver will be carving the cross for the garden of reflection and a number of benches. We will confirm when we know detailed times, but you are welcome to come and watch him.
Thanks to all who helped tidy up and plant in advance of judging last Monday for the Green Pennant - it seemed to go well and we will hear about this in early July.
