The Crowning Glory

As the Lottery project nears it's conclusion, the crowning glory was the installation of the wooden Totem designed and carved by Nansi Hemmings.
Great care was taken over the precise location and at last the day came to lift the 4.5 mtr. high solid Oak totem into place. Everyone involved on the day did their jobs to percection, and the totem was in place for all to see. And what a sight it was too!.
The carving of the totem is superb, and everyone who has inspected it feels the same. Nansi has surpassed all expectations and given Broadwaters Park a fitting monument for the long and complex  Lottery project.








Overall the project has been a stunning success, and all involved are to be heartily congratulated.
The official launch for the completion is to take place on 21st October in the park with a spectacular laser and firework show. A fitting climax to a magnificent effort.

Special thanks go, of course, to Jane Abraham for masterminding the whole project, and also Mike Abraham for his support.
