On May the 17th, in celebrating lockdown easing we all went to CentreParcs. Well, if we are being accurate, the centreish of Heeley People's Park, to woodchip around the new children's playground path and top up woodchip around the trees.

Heeley People's Park woodchip digging champion Rob (i think i need to work on my illeratation) filled up our woodchip trugs which we carried to the spreading destinations.
Following on from last month's Heeley People's Park Run report (https://www.goodgym.org/reports/we-came-we-trimmed-bushes-and-went-to-the-pub) - we found out a GGr lots of people know aka the Heeley People's Park Truganotor James has slightly longer hair and more beard in lockdown COVID times :) The sweet smell of woodchip took our minds to holidays away, while Kat took the team on shortcuts across the park to get to the main woodchip spreading location quicker. Afterall, It's not about the journey, it's about the destination ;)

Next time, we hope to open the task up to more GGrs, hope to see you there :)
