The
first community family event at Thrupp Lake organised
by the Northmoor Trust was held on Thursday 3rd June.
This was a small scale event aimed at children and families
and local people generally, targeting those who have
hitherto not become involved in the ongoing clearance
and conservation work. It was an opportunity for everyone
to come and simply enjoy an hour or so, or the whole
day, in beautiful surroundings, observing the wildlife,
or simply enjoying the glorious sunshine.
About 40 visitors
attended the event and engaged in general exploration,
bird watching, and pond dipping under the supervision
of naturalists from the Northmoor Trust, as well as
paddling in the very inviting cool water at the edge
of the lake.
Refreshments
were provided courtesy of the Northmoor Trust, and everyone
who came enjoyed their visit. |
