CPRE on Broadway. . .
........ Well, on Broadway village green, at any rate.This was the first
time for nine years that we had participated in a local show, and it came about
at short notice thanks to an invitation from the chairman of the local
Agricultural and Crafts Society, John Keylock.
Frank Hill and Ray Ellis organised and transported the tent and displays
and 'manned the fort' on what turned out to be a fine day in September.The
support of wives, and some help with the interviewing by David Willour, helped
to ensure
that the thirty or so interested
passers-by received a good background to our history and objectives. An
unexpected feature of the event was the high proportion of visitors from
outside Worcestershire or Gloucestershire, including Wales, Scotland, Holland and USA. Nevertheless, several new members were gained and one even gave a £20
contribution.
We are intending to take our tent and
displays to other local shows around Worcestershire next year.
