Fancy a weekend of labour and laughs?!?
Posted under: 
Height Gate Barn is one of the Woodcraft Folk Centres and it holds some special memories for many of us. But it needs our help! The barn is a lovely place to stay but in need of a bit of TLC and a general makeover.
So…. a proposal! On Monday 2nd August to Wednesday 4th August, just as you thought you would have nothing to do between DF Camp and V Camp this summer, there will be a WORKING WEEK at Height Gate!
We will stay over for two nights and help to decorate the building, doing things such as painting murals on the walls, checking the saplings are doing ok, decorating curtains etc. There are also a few things the Height Gate team would love us to do in terms of sustainable education, such as putting up signs as recommended by the BCEP energy audit and creating some environmental awareness games and activities.
And of course we’ll have plenty of lovely bonding time to boot.
This is pretty much confirmed now so I need to start getting a good of numbers! If you are at all interested, please contact me (Ruth) on 07821061603 so I can get an idea of how many people want to come and help.
Height Gate has kindly offered us the place for free, as we’ll be helping them out, so the only thing that will cost is food for the weekend. If anyone is interested in being KP for the event pleeease let me know, as I am crap with food :p
Lets give something back to Height Gate! I’m sure we all have very fond memories of the place
