Helping to preserve the wood for the future of the community.
JANUARY UPDATE
Seasons Greetings to all Wood Supporters and users from the OWFS.
The Friends have been working on your behalf to ensure that this wood will remain an enduring and beautiful wild place. Currently the plans for woodland management proposed by WDC are being decided and it looks as though major thinning will take place next Autumn.
The presence of large machinery working in the wood will mean that areas of the wood will not be available for walkers from time to time and that when they have finished the wood will look rather bare. We are assured that the wood will recover over the Winter and by Summer 2011 it will re-grow and start to improve. Some of the committee have visited Packington Wood where similar work has recently been carried out and few signs of the disturbance are visible.
Our AGM will be 7.30 on Tuesday 23rd February at Bishops Tachbrook Sports and Social Club. Please come even if you are not a member. You can have your say!
Wendy Barlow
We will continue to keep you informed through Plurality and on our website www.saveoakleywood.org.uk.
