Orchard pruning event

January 16th 2012

The National Trust is putting on two orchard pruning events in February in the local area.

The first is on Saturday 11th February at 1.00 pm aimed at formative pruning of young orchard trees. Professional advice will be available on the day and it is a hands-on activity.

The second is on Friday 17th February at 10.00 am aimed at restorative pruning of older more unruly trees. Again a hands-on activity and with professional advice on pruning apple trees and other orchard fruits.

Refreshments will be provided at both and booking is needed for both of these events.

If people could get in contact with the Ranger team by either phone: 01726 870146 or email: southeastcornwall@nationaltrust.org.uk for further details on location etc.

There is no charge for the events but donations would be welcome.

Seagull Race Report

January 13th 2012

The 24^th Lerryn Annual Seagull race took place on the 7^th of January. Much to the amazement of everyone, there was an entry of 35 boats which, like their crews, were dressed in line with the theme which was; ‘STRICTLY’. A huge crowd on the river banks cheered on the competitors who rose to new heights of skill and expertise. (No-one sank this year.)

The weather was very clement for the time of year. In our strange old climate, we have had to cancel 3 summer events because of the weather, but never a seagull race which are always held in winter!

Monies were raised for the RNLI and local charities. Prize giving took place in the Ship Inn, wherein are the committee rooms of The River Lerryn Yacht Squadron, who organise the occasion.

Some said that they really enjoyed the day, but most couldn’t remember very much about it.

A big thanks to all who made the event such a success once again.

To get a flavour of the day, look at all the photos on the Photo Gallery
