Quieter Times
After the end of the school holidays it is very quiet which gives us a chance to catch up with things. We are planning an Evening at the Races in the Clubhouse 23rd October so get dressed and come along and see if you can win. Any ideas you may have for events are always welcome please bring them into the shop/reception, we are already beginning to think about next season!

Charity Days and Gardening Days..Busy times at ParcFarm
It's been a while since any of us wrote an update. But, to be fair to us all it has been really busy here at ParcFarm.
Our annual charity fun day was a big success and enjoyed by all. it has become a day which everyone looks forward to. Hard work but well worth it. Luckily the weather was sunny for us and the weeks we spent checking weather forecasts and trying to beg and borrow as many gazebos as possible were not entirely necessary, but one thing that it is impossible to do is predict the Great British Weather. So we prepared for the worst and had a nice surprise when it was sunny and warm for most of the day.
As well as the usual mix of games, raffles, competitions and stalls we had some fantastic entertainment. The axe men were fantastic to watch and the audience were suitably stunned as the wood cutters climbed, chopped, sawed and raced with chainsaws and axes.
The falconry display from Pen-y-Bryn Falconry is always a favourite among both adults and children. This year the display was fantastic and everyone got a chance to hold the birds or take part in the display itself.
August is always a busy month for us and only a few days after the fun day we had our gardening competition presentation. It is always amazing to see how much effort our customers put into the gardens around their caravans. we have beautiful floral displays, water features and even vegetable plots. The judge this year was Ruth Davies from the National Garden Scheme and she was stunned and commented on how unexpected ir was to find such well established and well maintained gardens around caravans.
As the children go back to school we can all breathe a collective sigh of relief, not that we don't enjoy having the children here, but with the park so busy other areas of work tend to fall behind a little. But now we can catch up and start to look forward to our new ParcFarm projects.
