Grappenhall & Thelwall Open Weekend Fri 1st & Sat 2nd May
Welcome
This is the inaugural Grappenhall & Thelwall weekend. It promises to be a fantastic
time for everyone involved and we hope you find this guide useful in making the most
of it!
A tremendous amount happens in our villages throughout the year, with hundreds
of people involved in dozens of community organisations. It is hoped that this Open
Weekend will provide a real flavour of the many things that you can get involved with
in Grappenhall and Thelwall. This could be a new hobby, an activity for the kids or
something for the whole family to try. I am sure that there is something happening
during the Open Weekend which will capture your imagination.
This weekend has been a year in the making and has involved a huge number of people
representing the different groups putting on activities - I would like to thank them all,
but knowing the risks of listing names I will simply say ‘they know whotheyare’.
I hope you enjoy the weekend and let us know what you think!
