The title of the report is reference to the Eagles mascot Swoop who we will meet one day, as well as us all swooping into action.

It was so light this evening, with a little breeze.

Expect to see wildflowers shooting up over the hill, as wild flowers will be planted in the next coming weeks.

It was my first time at the Newcastle Eagles new venue (well not so new now).

Our task this evening was to do some weeding in one of the flower beds. Trying to decide what to keep and what to remove was the trickiest part.

It was good to get stuck in and try and focus directly on the task of weeding and not trying to listen to the internal critic.

The time went so quickly and in the blink of an eye it was time to put our tools away.

There is lots going on at the arena, including weekly volleyball sessions and of course lots of basketball sessions.

If you know of anybody who might be interested in Goodgym please let them know about it all. All are welcome.

Next session is a community mission on Saturday 27th May meeting at 10:30 at the greening Wingrove Bike Garden in Nuns Moor Park.

Next group run is on Monday 29th May (bank holiday Monday) meeting at 18:15 at Stepney Bank Stables.
