Despite the poor start of the day weather-wise, the rain cleared just in time for VEF’s annual Easter duck race. Huge thanks for all who came along, bought all the tickets, had fun and helped raise funds to allow us to continue enhancing Ventnor for both locals and visitors. A great time was had by all. Many thanks to Vintage scoops and Crave for providing icecream on the day and in the form of prizes respectively.
A team of volunteers spent a couple of hours on 30th preparing the ‘town square’ (as we call it) for summer. Old or dead plants removed, beds weeded, bindweed removed, area swept and litter picked – any plants that survived the winter are reused and new ones bedded in and watered.
