Raising the Green Flag

Friends of the Arno and Oxton Fields gathered last Saturday 1st November 2014 at noon to join together in celebrating another achievement. We have been awarded the Green Flag status for yet another year. Here you can see members of the Committee attaching the new flag to the pole. During the Summer we held our breath waiting for an inspector to pay us a ' secret ' visit and announce whether or not we had earned the right to keep our Green Flag status. It was not until September that we were informed of our success.
Refreshments were provided and we drank a toast as the flag was raised in the Rose Garden. Many thanks to all those who came along to help mark the occasion.
