A few Goodgym members came together to assist the Gardner at Stephens house and gardens. This is a charity park the benefits greatly from volunteers. Most of us gathered at the Phoenix cinema and ran the 3 km to meet Josh the Gardner at the house. We also met up with Simone who had chosen to walk. We then set to work raking the leaves from the main lawn in front of the house and bagging for transport. It was a surprisingly good workout using the rake and grabbers. We then ran back to the Phoenix listening to some of the latest musical hits.( maybe not the latest ! ). A great way to get fit and do a little good for the community.
A Grade ll listed house with extensive landscaped gardens, gifted for the use and enjoyment of the people by Henry Charles 'Inky' Stephens of the Stephens' Ink Company.
