Forest Hill Society and Sydenham Society are joining forces on May Day (Monday 4th May) for a picnic on Albion Millennium Green. Albion Millennium Green is at the end of Albion Villas, off Sydenham Park Road (map available from Google)

Bring along a picnic and any game you want us to play, and we have a few games planned between Sydenham and Forest Hill.

Full details at http://www.foresthillsociety.com/2009/04...april.html

Don't forget to bring along a picnic or just wander by between noon and 3pm this afternoon.

Monday, May 3rd 2010 – May Day, Albion Millennium Green.

Last year’s inaugural event was a great success but we’re going bigger and better in 2010 – the Green’s tenth anniversary. To mark the occasion, we’re going to plant a small orchard of six heritage apple species at the west end of the Green.

12:00-1:00 – tree-planting

1:00-2:00 – bring-your-own picnic lunch

2:00-3:00 – traditional May Day Morris Dancing with the Dacre Lady Morris dancers giving two performances and two teaching sessions.

Come along to mark this historic occasion. Bring friends and family, food and drink, skittles, boules or cricket bats and have a really fun celebration of May Day and the continued success of Albion Millennium Green.

Just a reminder to bring some wellies/boots with you to tomorrow's picnic, the ground may be a little damp. But let's not let that dampen our spirits!
