Latest news and updates from the Camposol Sector C Gardening and social group.
GREENFINGERS GARDENING & SOCIAL GROUP ‘SECTOR C'
The Greenfingers Gardening & Social Club from ‘Sector C' are continuing their hard work with a lot of the verges around the sector now gravelled and the residents are putting in an array of plants and pots. A trailer was donated to the group last summer which has enabled the group to buy some large water containers which are placed around the sector for residents to use to water plants but unfortunately the trailer can only be used around Sector C as it is not roadworthy enough to use off Camposol so if anyone has one they would like to donate, the club would be very grateful. Also dustbin areas have been created off the road and concreted which is making the whole sector look much tidier and makes driving on the roads safer. Recently the group have completed a Petanca pitch on 'C1' which is at the top end of Calle Alcaudete and is for the use of Sector C residents and their friends and family. There is a small tiled patio area with a table and chairs for spectators to sit and more room if you want to bring your own chairs and a brick barbecue has kindly been donated and installed so come and make it an afternoon or evening event we just ask that you leave the area as you found it.
There is also an active group of dog walkers on the sector who are clearing up the popular walking area behind the Petanca Pitch of any dog mess and have put up notices advising other dog walkers that there are bags available tied to the fences around the walk to help them clear up after their dogs. Of course responsible dog owners don't need reminding but hopefully with bags available everyone will be able to take part and there have already been very positive comments from families who walk there with young children.
The club can also help you dispose of your garden rubbish to the Eco Park by loaning the ASAP Building Contractors trailer and will take it to your villa, you fill it will then be taken to the Eco Park. All the group ask is for a donation to their funds after fuel costs have been taken out. We also supply free a very large ton sack for garden rubbish that will fit in the boot of your car so you can take it to the Eco Park yourself thus freeing up the bins for domestic rubbish which always becomes a problem in the summer when there are a lot of visitors and bins are filled with garden waste. All we ask is that you return the bag so other residents can use it.
We are always looking for more volunteers to help and even though the group are now having a well earned break for the summer they will recommence sometime in September. There are always notice boards around the sector with information of where the working party is going to be on certain dates and we meet on a regular basis. The group runs purely on donations so if you feel you can spare some cash to help make your sector a nicer place to be please dig deep and either donate into the buckets which are always with the working party or contact us, also needed are donations of Plants, raffle prizes, Trailer or anything like memorial benches etc.
If you are interested in donating or using the Eco Park services please contact Bernard Holland on 626513842 or e-mail spainvilarosa@gmail.com .
If you would like news and information about your local gardening group included, please send completed text in word format and photographs as a j-peg.
It is also completely free for all the volunteer groups to use the classifieds section to advertise their services and request donations of plants, equipment and also promote their fundraising events.
