Proper June weather at last allowed us to get on with the job of sanding down and treating the sculpture behind the library, which we'd put off from the May task day. In addition, more of the Friends joined in with pupils from Marple Hall to weed and mulch the shrub bed nearest the entrance and also to do part of the bed alongside the cinema.
Sadly Marple Hall will miss the next two task days due to the school holidays but we look forward to welcoming them back in September as they have been a huge help in maintaining the park already this year.
This month, as well as our normal task day on the last Saturday, two members helped to plant up the ornamental flower beds in coalition government colours (we're assured it's a coincidence) before Carnival Day.
