ANNOUNCEMENTS
ICY PATHWAYS
Our very reliable snow removal
company does
a great job keeping the paths clear
but sometimes
their clean up work is followed by
the snow plough
which blocks the entrance
to the Parish
Centre and Church or
more weather
happens.
The clean up team cannot be here all the time
so occasionally
we have to clear the pathway or
put some de-icer
down ourselves.
There is a snow shovel and bucket of de-icer
at the door of
the Parish Centre and the Church.
If you see that the path is icy or needs a
little clearing,
please help us
out.
