Unfortunately Windlesham Parish Council couldn't provide an electronic copy of the plans so here's a photo through the glass of the noticeboard. Click on the image to see a bigger picture.

2010 Playground Spring Clean Success

Thursday, 22 April 2010 08:50

Photo of some of the Friday work team Two days of fun, laughter and hard work by teams from our village have given the Whitmoor Road playground (next to Lilliput/Curly Park Rangers) a makeover. Running over 16th and 17th April, the Big Spring Clean was masterminded by Sandra Polhill who is leading a team aiming to improve our playgrounds in Bagshot. The work was done in partnership with Park Ranger Steve Harris from Surrey Heath Borough Council who own the playground. (Some of Friday's team are in the photo)

The teams cleaned, swept, scraped, cut and painted to give the playground its new look and the effort was a real community one with help from individual and local businesses including AJH Painters & Decorators, Bagshot Post Office, Bagshot Sure Start Centre, Burley Landscapes, Co-operative Store, Creative Presentations, Curley Park Rangers FC, JC Fabrications, Nigel Jefferies Landscapes, Lilliput Children's Centre, Shelly Lindsell (Pampered Chef), Surrey Heath Borough Council, The Village Cafe, Tulip Publications, Windlesham Parish Council.

A huge well done and thank you to everyone involved.

Slides in the the park
