We are working with the YMCA and hope to bring news soon of a new youth club in Myland and we are also looking at supporting other activities to engage our residents . We recently paid for the installation of a new outdoor table tennis table opposite Myland School and we hope it will in time be as well used as the first provided by CBC at Mill Road Recreation Ground. Thanks to Councillor Goss for making sure this happened. October is the time when we start to think of what we need to plan and budget for in the next financial year so if there is anything you think we should be addressing please let us know. We have ideas on electric vehicle charging, a Coronation event and further youth activities in addition to our usual services cleaning bus shelters, street services and looking after our assets. Cllr Alison Jay Chair of Myland Council 07761 729054 [email protected] Chair’s Report 9 www.mylandcommunitycouncil.gov.uk Myland Community Council MYLAND BOXING DAY WALK 10AM, 26TH 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 lsewhere in this issue), the oxing Day walk will be 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 b 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!
