A swag of me mates in the Gardens!
Now, the latest fun thing will be the Garden Club putting a swag of me Mates in the Botanical Gardens, this means extending the Trail down Long Rd and back, so all you folks along this new bit of Trail make sure you get some Scarecrow Mates to line the route.
And at the other end of the Trail we will be going to Rosser Park.
