Guardians of the galax-tree

It was a very wet evening but six hardy Goodgymers braved the rain to run and cycle to Askham Bar. Our task was to remove tree guards from hundreds of trees or in some cases sticks, where the trees hadn't taken. Whilst we did bag hundreds of guards they were only a section of the total. It is a mammoth task and I'm sure we'll be back for round 2 (and probably 3). The plastic guards had got quite brittle and often broke into pieces when we removed them so it wasn't always as straightforward as it first seemed. Mitch found a small skull which led to a discussion about what type of creature it was from. We finished with a group photo before heading home to dry off and warm up.
