The rescheduled Friends of Sandall Park meeting is………. tonight!
Usual time and place – 7pm at Sandalwood Communal Hall, Sandalwood Close, Wheatley (opposite the main entrance to the old golf course on Thorne Road)
Loads of things to discuss and loads of planning to do for events and projects throughout the year. Spring usually means there is lots to do in the park.
FoSP members today attended the Civic Building at the invitation of the council in support of the LGC Awards that they are in the running for.
A great day being amongst other enthusiastic people trying to do the best for Doncaster.
A big thankyou to the council for the invite – from our point of view – well worth the effort and we wish DMBC all the best with the award.
If you are interested in looking after a green space in your area – not just Sandall Park – feel free to join a green space network we’ve set up across Doncaster.
Next gathering on the 26th. Full details on the Doncaster GreenSpace Network website.
