Annual Community Fridge Clean

It's that time of the year when the Woking GG team put on their gloves grab their buckets and start the annual community fridge clean 🫧🧽

Despite the weather Wayne, Nadia, Alys, & Julie all arrived on time wnd where met by Jules with all the supplies that were needed 😊

Wayne started to clean the community fridge A Frame sign which was in a right state.

Nadia & Julie started to remove the filing cabinet out of the shed and go through and sort out its contents.

Alys was tasked with giving the cabinet a good wipe down wit Quinn also helping 🐶 It was great seeing Alys who has just returned from a long trip to Japan 🏯 and hearing all about it.

Once these tasks were completed and as the heavens opened ⛈️ we all moved into the shed to move the big fridge and freezer and get behind then to give it a good deep clean, Sweeping up bread crumbs from all the loafs that are normally stored on the shelfs 🥖. At the same time Julie & Nadia giving them a good wipe down.

Wayne then carried out an inspection of the cables making sure they were in good condition

Once all the Crumbs and floor had been cleaned it was time for Nadia &Alys to mop the floor🫧🧼

The place smelt and looked great by the time we had finished.

Due to the weather we could paint and stain the shed so will be back another day to carry out this task 😊

Woking Junior Park Run

This morning after my morning run i headed off to junior park run to carry out marshal duties. It was surprisingly chilly 🥶.

I was at marshal point 4.5 which was my first time being at this spot. 🏃🏼‍♂️

In total this morning there were an incredible 230 runners taking on the 2k course.

The fastest time was an amazing 7:07

There were also 65 PB's Great running by everyone

St John's The Baptist Church

This morning i headed back to the Church to continue with removing the weeds and moss around the church patio and grounds 🍀

After 1 hours grafting the patio area was looking so much better 😄

Knaphill Lower School

This evening Wayne, Kirsty, & Nadia met at Knaphill lower school for a final push to get the outdoor play area completed in time for its grand opening in early June 😄

They were met by Vicki & Mark and were given tasks.

First task was to clear the ground of leaves and twigs 🍁🍂 from the area. Rakes and bags were provided.

2nd task was for Wayne & Mark to move three very heavy Belfast Sinks and place them in specific locations around the garden. These sinks were about 50kg 💪🏼, luckily we had a trolly to put them on once they had been lifted off the ground.

The whole garden looked amazing especially with the Goodgym bird boxes that were created by the team high up in the tree's.

Once the date of the opening is confirmed it would be fantastic for all of us to attend. 😄

The turnout at Woking Junior Parkrun was astounding as per usual!! Wayne, Mel, Ola and Luan were the GoodGym marshals for the morning.

Writing the report I tried to get the stats for the event but, today everyone was pretty chilled at the end so there was no prize giving as there have been other times.

The kids are so cool at Junior Parkrun and a couple of them high fived me as they ran past, OMG they are cute! Usually I personally try to be as encouraging as possible and cheer them on as they pass…

They all did so well to run their 2k around the park!

Awesome :-)
