All members of the Community wit an interest in Tividale Park are welcome

Could volunteers meet in the park on 01/7/18 near the yellow barriers to run through a briefing on the event; this is so everyone know there roles and what we need to do in various scenarios.

Meeting time is 11am and will aim to keep it to no more than 30 minutes.

Volunteers need to be on duty for 8.30 at the Tividale Park Black Country Festival on Saturday 7th July.

If you can’t make the briefing, don’t worry let the organiser know and we can run through it on the day.  (max@ tividale-park.org.uk)

At our May meeting we discussed the pros and cons of different venues and after receiving an invitation from the Bert, the Landlord of The Wonder, will be holding June meetings at The Wonder from 6.30pm to 8pm.

Come along and meet the gang! With the event so close it is a great time to get involved with a group dedicated to improving our local park.

We are current looking for helpers and stewards on the day.
