We will be celebrating 100 years since Everest was conqured, by the husband and wife climbing team of Hillary and Tenzing, by attempting to assend a papermache scale model of the mountain we’ve erected inside the Town Hall. It’s quite a daunting size as can be seen (below) when it was inspected in the interests of health and safety. So join us at “base-camp” (the townhall steps) at 4pm, weather permitting.
