Quakers Walk Big Picnic
A big thank you to everyone who helped to make Quakers Walk Big Picnic such a success on Saturday 2nd June. The weather held off for us until we began to pack up, so we were more fortunate than many. Feedback has been very positive from many who enjoyed the races and other activities and it was good to see so many groups of people chatting to each other. A special thank you to St James church who provided their Messy Play tent and activities for the children to enjoy, Lee from Palmers Road who brought along his bouncy castle, and Kelly from Quakers Road who spent all afternoon painting children’s faces – we must find help for you next time! Bob and Pam did stirling work helping Colin with the races, and clearing up the meadow after the event, Hannah took some great photos, and Jackie was ‘Jack of all trades’ in the planning and setting up of the event. Great community spirit – we also enjoyed Natalie’s thoughtful coffee and choc tray in the morning as we were setting up. Here’s to next time…………………..
And regarding the bunting:
The residents of Quakers Walk certainly got behind the Bunting Challenge for the weekend of the Diamond Jubilee. 80 houses were decorated in some way, with large and small flags, and yards and yards of bunting of all kinds, some even making their own – very impressive. Well done – it looked great!
