T'was a wonderful summer Sunday, as we gathered to attend,

Another GoodGym mission, for which our hands were asked to lend,

A hand to paint a clubhouse, in lovely Batheaston,

That needed a lift, with some urgent redecoration.

We met at the George, but we were only a few,

Aaron and Meyrick and Becca, who to GoodGym was new,

These were the runners, heading for the task,

We jogged across countryside, over river and grass

We were initially lost, as What3Words was wrong,

But to our good fortune Becca's navigational skills were strong,

A five minute walk and we were no longer lost,

Finding the clubhouse, where we found Richard and Cos

Painting was the task, and we took to it like pros,

Rollers and brushes, magnolia and gloss,

We naturally aced it and finished the job,

And our hosts, rightly delighted, rewarded us with grub.

On a humid Sunday morning, 5 Goodgymers went to Syndey gardens to help the gardens community group. Armed with wheelbarrows and spades we were tasked to shovel sand into the wheelbarrows and deliver to the sandpits.

There were 2 huge ton bags to empty, but the team were confident that they could empty these within the hour.

As we filled the sandpits the local children were keen to help and spread the sand around.

The time flew by and a few minutes before the end of the session the bags were empty! Super impressive by the team. Well done everyone!

Just two Goodgymers were free to help in Alice park on Sunday. The weather was perfect, dry and not too hot or cold. We helped put up bunting to prepare for a festival and then set to work on levelling some tables so that they could be used to store seedlings.

4 Goodgymers met to help Sydney gardens volunteers move tons of woodchip into the children's play area.

Armed with spades and wheelbarrows the team worked quickly and moved at least 18 wheelbarrows of wood chip into the play area where the Sydney gardens volunteers racked the woodchip around the plants.

It was great to meet new Goodgym member Sam who has recently moved to Bath. Welcome Sam!

We also welcomed Cosmo sister from London. It was great to meet you too!

Enjoy your week everyone and hopefully see you at the next task
