Share the love

10 GoodGymers gathered at the Riverside family hub on a perfect Spring evening to take on the wish list prepared by the task owner. We love a well organised task!

In true GoodGym spirit, we tackled the "Extra hard challenge" first: a very heavy bug hotel which needed moving. Very quickly the group decided this was futile. Even if we could move the bug hotel, it wouldn't go through the gate. The task owner and all present concurred the best thing was to build a new one in the wildlife garden. Maybe we'll get called back for that fun task!

We dispersed onto other things then:

  • Viv, Angela and Roberta attacked the bindweed covering the gravel by the main gate.
  • Julie took to de-weeding the tractor-tyres-turned-planters and then onto bindweed as well.
  • Tony, Sheila, Kanika and Diya weeded the veg patch, the gravel area and the pond side.
  • Amy and Jess gave the deck and benches a good scrub.

Once the hard work was done, it was time for some play! Amy and Kanika stretched out on the...mounds (?), Amy did planks on the plank and pretty soon, a circuit took shape! There was running, step ups, tricep pushes and some other activities which involved jumping and a lot of laughing.

Task owner Heather had very kindly set out some refreshments for us. We enjoyed delicious fruits and beverages which was a perfect end to a productive mission.
