Why you should come along……..
​
-
You will enjoy it and find it very interesting. A major feature will be a short presentation on, and a display of Photographs of, wildlife seen in the Cressbeds Nature Reserve.
-
There will be a gentle written quiz of just a few rounds to be completed (or not) during the evening at your leisure, with small prizes; this format proved very popular at last year’s event. Add in a hot supper (included in the very reasonable price of £15 per head), a bar, a raffle (donations of prizes would be greatly appreciated – please contact David Solomon) and plenty of time to circulate and socialise and we think you will agree this will be a most stimulating evening.
-
The cress beds and nature reserve represent an extraordinary feature of and resource for the village, and we should all support and show appreciation for the hardworking team who maintain the beds and nature reserve, week in and week out, and keep them looking so attractive.
-
By attending you will be automatically subscribed as a member of the “Friends”. This will give you free entry to open days at the beds, access to information about events, and the opportunity to have your say on the running and operation of the beds and centre.
So, do come along and show your support, get involved and have a great evening. We look forward to seeing you there.
