This Week's Clean-Up

This week the spring clean-up is moving into town. Starting at the Pleasure Grounds we plan to move across by the river to the lawn area. This is the last clean-up of the April Spring Clean campaign and this one is always the most interesting. Come along and join in this random treasure hunt! You'd never believe what you might find stashed away under a tree! There might even be a prize for the most interesting find!! Please come along. We have lots of spare gloves and refuse sacks. We just need one hour of your time and your community spirit! See you there!
