Troopers Hill Local Nature Reserve
|
|
We hold meetings every six weeks or so to discuss ideas for events and works to be done on the hill and to pass on any news or information. Although we have an agenda and our Chair tries to keep some sort of order the meetings are very informal and light hearted.
We would be very pleased to see anyone who has an interest in the hill, its history or its wildlife.
|
Future Meeting dates: |
Thursday 21st September
Tuesday 7th November
Wednesday 13th December - AGM

Meetings are 7.15pm to 9.00pm

All our meetings since Nov 2004 have been at this venue which we have found is ideal for our needs. We meet in the parlour, there will be signs to direct you from the gates to the church on Bryants Hill.
