Members Open Evening, Community Hall Summer 2005
The event attracted some new members and prompted existing members to
air their views. It was a pity that very few of our elected local government
representatives were able to drop in despite nearly 100 invitations. It is true,
however, that a SCDC meeting took place that evening. To everyone else that
turned up - thank you. The topics were often hot and the comments
frequently sizzling.
New Street School - Pupils' Open Evening
This was a huge success - driven by the boundless enthusiasm of the children
involved. Parents and WAMRAG members watched short videos made by the
children in zappy TV style, each with Producer, Cameraman and Presenter showing
the key Riverside areas and highlighting the issues involved, complete with interviews.
There were also 27 individual designs for a family leisure centre for Woodbridge.
Hats off to Caroline Moore, their teacher, for directing this project and to the Headmaster
for welcoming WAMRAG involvement. We have been asked to help with this year's
project too. Our picture shows teacher Caroline Moore and
her technical assistant setting up the video show.
Riverside Litter Pickers
The entire river frontage from Wilford Bridge to Kyson Point has been divided into
sectors each with a leader and a group of volunteers to regularly patrol the area.
Our photograph shows the first litter pick with intrepid volunteers and a
chauffeur-driven dust cart especially provided by The Council to mark the occasion.
