7 Park Upkeep
The up and down path was getting overgrown and needed an application of weedkiller before resurfacing.
The area around the big swings and slide needed the weeds clearing. Christine volunteered the surfaces of Kevin whom she had bought in the Fete Slave Auction.
The Basketball equipment had again been vandalised. The possibility of getting known vandals’ parents to pay was discussed. It was decided to ask Emma Alum to cost warning signs.
New bilingual signs about dogs; Tony & Lynn’s fence; and one for the entrance should also be costed.
