It’s been a busy Summer at Willow Tree this year with us celebrating the Girlguiding centenary as well as hosting a successful jazz night and adding new features to the centre.
New Plants
Following the successful Work Day in May, Tendercare of Denham donated plants for the newly cleared beds.
Very many thanks to them for their support and to everyone who took part in the Work Day. Without the support of local business and our hard working volunteers, we wouldn’t be able to maintain the high standards our visitors enjoy at the Willow Tree Centre. If you’d like to get involved, you can read more on our volunteering page.
Willow Dome
Another new feature at the Centre this year is the Willow Dome. This was planted between the camp sites earlier in the year by Harrow & Pinner Division and is now a shady hideaway despite all the very dry weather we had at the beginning of the Summer. With the recent heavy downpours, we’re considering building an ark as our next venture!
Girlguiding Centenary
Centenary celebrations have been taking place at Willow Tree all over the Summer with all 4 divisions and the Trefoil Guild holding events with hundreds of Guides and Brownies attending. Click on the thumbnails to see full size photos.
How did you celebrate the centenary? Did you come along to any of the Girlguiding centenary events at Willow Tree? Drop us a line in the comments below. We’d love to hear from you.
Summer Jazz Evening
Over 150 people picnicked and were entertained by part of the Stardust Big Band as we hosted an open air jazz concert on a balmy evening at the end of June.
The evening was supported by Barclays Bank which provided the sound system and a team to manage the gate and organise parking. Once again, many thanks to Barclays and for everyone who supported a fantastic evening.
