Despite the freezing weather, the  'Friends', in conjunction with W.F.D.C., up the work rate in the park with preparations for Spring.......when it finally arrives.
         The very woody Snowberry is to be cut back and the two Holly trees along the 'Scout bank' are to be moved between the lamppost and the bridge.
The work that Friends do is even noticed by the younger generation. A young lad was reported to have said that "..the 'Friends of Broadwaters' must have beeen very busy planting all those bulbs". 
         He was of course referring to the continuing bulb planting project along the bank adjacent to the car park.
         Another section will be planted when the new sloping path has been constructed.
         Work is also in progress in preparation for the Friends annual plant sale, which will take place on 18th May.
