Mylander - Issue 85

9 www.mylandcommunitycouncil.gov.uk Myland Community Council MYLAND BOXING DAY WALK 10AM , 26 TH DECEMBER MEET AT ST MICHAEL’S PARISH HALLS IN AID OF LOCAL CAUSES RAFFLE • REFRESHMENTS MINCE PIES • DOGS WELCOME Council Reports Each walk will be less than one and a half hours long, and will visit some of the lovely green spaces we have around Myland – including High Woods Country Park, Chesterwell Woods, Tower Lane and much more! As mentioned above, (and probably elsewhere in this issue), the Boxing Day walk will be on Saturday 26th December starting at 10am at the Myland Parish Halls – just across the road from the War Memorial. This is a fundraising event which has been held every year for the last twenty years or so, rasing money for local good causes. The route that we take follows the parish boundary (give or take the odd obstruction like the A12!), and is approximately six and half miles long – and takes around two and a half hours. It is free to come on the walk, although donations would be most gratefully received on behalf of Young at Heart! There will be also a raffle (with the usual fantastic prizes!), dogs and children welcome! If you’ve never been on this walk, it is a great way to meet your neighbours, discover shortcuts and different walking routes as well as getting rid of some of the excesses of Christmas!
