Rave in the Grave!
5 GoodGymers made their way to help their local community in Windsor and Maidenhead.
- Thursday, 4th of April 2024
- Led by Mandy Driver
Thursday at 6:15pm is GoodGym Windsor night ππββοΈππ»ββοΈ and tonight we were at Vale Road Cemetery doing its first tidy up of the spring.
This was a community mission so Adam, Zoe, Helen and Mandy made our way with a social run the long way round from the meeting point at The Binoy and Sue met us there. Huge welcome to Zoe who was attending her very first GoodGym session ππ»β₯οΈ
The task owner Paul had left tunny bags for us and given Mandy instructions. Sue is also a regular volunteer there so we had an expert on hand.
We split the team with Sue and Adam attacking the Ivy on the fences, trees and gravestones on the far side they were not ghouling around π» . While Helen, Zoe and Mandy stayed nearer the entrance collecting leaves bending, squatting and pulling the tunny bag as we went and Helen had a good go at pulling down the tallest bramble ever known but sadly failed but lots of effort was put in trying π€£ Mandy also found a bone π¦΄β¦. Donβt worry it wasnβt human we didnβt do any digging!
Lots of chats and looking at how much difference we made lifted our spirits π»
We left the two full bags for collection by the council tomorrow and the rubbish in the bins.
After the task Sue and Helen made their way back but Zoe, Adam and Mandy decided to get RIP- ped πͺ¦and used some fitness playing cards for a quick extra fun workout followed by the Windsor π curtsy/bow before we made back to the meeting point.
Thank you all for coming. β₯οΈππ»ββοΈπββοΈππ»
