                                Since the last meeting several residents had responded to the letters but there

tidy up and will discuss it further.

 

99/109                     CORRESPONDENCE

                                A letter had been received from North Walsham Swimming Pool Fund Association

asking that we write to the District Council expressing our support for the scheme.

As it was too late to get the letter to them Mr Wilkins (District Councillor) was asked

to express our support verbally.

                               

 

 

 

 

99/110                                FLORAL WEEK

                                Mrs Rance gave a report of the sub-committee.

                                The first suggestion was that it be called a flower festival and that emphasis should be

                                put on involving as much of the village as possible. Meeting Hill have already expressed

                                an interest and the committee have thought of approaching Briggate residents.

                                Mrs Gray was organising some information and it was also hoped to get an article in the

                                April Parish magazine and also the North Norfolk News.

                                The categories suggested are Garden, Containers & Children with only one entry per

                                category per household although an exception to this will probably be Children to allow each

                                child to enter if they wish.

                                The school is also being approached for help.

                                Mr Le Grice will be asked to judge and sponsorship sought from local businesses.

                                Father Anthony will be asked to write the certificates again and it is hoped to be able

                                To offer 1st 2nd & 3rd prizes for each category

 

99/111                     ANY OTHER BUSINESS

                                School Footway this has been raked and is much better.
