Nordic Walking week commencing 26th November, 2018

Hi Walkers,

So happy to see so many of my walkers at the Santa Stroll today! Thank you for coming along and making it such a fun event. A Massive thank you to Gordon for helping get the route marked up this morning and Peter, Martin, Denise and Barbara for being great marshalls! Couldn’t do this without you all. I also must thank Bev and her marvellous carol singers who really made this feel so festive. Not forgetting Enza and June for their lovely stall. Thanks everyone.

This coming week we have some mixed weather so make sure you wear the correct shoes/boots. If it is heavy rain I will cancel due to the slip hazard with surface water, and I will endeavour to get an email out at least 45 mins prior to the class. The very latest updates regarding cancellations are put on the website www.walk2fitness.co.uk so definitely look it up before you leave for your walk if in any doubt.

CRANFIELD CHRISTMAS TREE FESTIVAL

I will be bringing our Christmas Tree to the Cranfield Church at 2:45pm on Thursday this week to decorate. I have a lot of the decorations you did last time so we can use them and as the theme this year is Peace, Lesley and Jean H have made the best Doves to put on the tree too. Thanks guys. If any of my Cranfield Bunch are free on Thursday afternoon, it would be great to see you. Cuppa at Oso’s afterwards. Yay!
