PING PONG TABLE IN THE PARK
Posted Wednesday October 24, 2012
Courtesy of our wonderful Park Ranger Lindsey, we now have a Ping Pong table in the Park. You might have noticed similar tables dotted around the city during the summer and wondered why we didn’t get one. Well it wasn’t for lack of trying! But now Lindsey has secured one of the tables used in the city over the summer, and its been placed just south of the old water fountain.
The Friends of Queens Park have agreed, along with Lindsey, to maintain it for as long as we are allowed to have it. If you use it, do please remember to replace the ball and bats.
New Chair and Committee members elected
Posted Thursday October 4, 2012
At the A.G.M last night, Johnny Webb was unanimously elected to replace out-going Chair Sandra Magson. Thankfully, Sandra will remain on the Committee, casting her solicitors’ eye over our work.
Joining the Committee for the first time are Andi Belgrove, Susie Latta and Conrad Brunner.
The A.G.M. was well attended ( in fact a full house), and we thank all for coming and for the helpful questions and observations that were put from the ‘floor’.
Details of the new Committee can be seen here.
