NEWSLETTER 51 Spring: April 1st - June 30th 2009 |
Events. All events are free and open to members and non-members alike. Donations always welcome. Saturday 18th April Bluebell Walk Meet 2.00pm on the portico steps of the mansion. A treat this year, Nick Bertrand, an old friend of BPP as far back as the Public enquiry in the 1990s, is leading this walk. Hope the bluebells are out on time! Sunday 17th May Beating the Bounds Walk Meet 1.30pm on the portico steps of the mansion. Please join Nick (another one) on this circular walk around the boundary of the park. Beating the bounds is an old tradition which we like to carry on in the park Saturday 20th June Old Boundary Post and Trees Walk Meet 2.00pm on the Mansion steps. On this walk we will be roughly following the old boundary posts that cross the park (some are on the golf course and may be a bit inaccessible) and also looking at the lovely old trees. |
About The Friends Events All our events are free, but any donations to funds are much appreciated. Most last about 1-2 hours, but you can join in for as long or as little as you like. It is advisable to wear stout walking shoes, as the paths do get very muddy. Walkers are individually responsible for their own safety during our events. Children are welcome, but a parent or guardian should accompany under-12’s. Dogs are welcome, if kept under control. Walk leaders always carry water and mobile phone
