Shall we celebrate the Royal
Wedding in Hadley Wood?
At the recent Hadley Wood Association annual meeting, it was suggested
we celebrate the forthcoming royal wedding of Prince William to Kate
Middleton on the 29th April. The proposal was that to mark this wonderful
event we have a party at the Hadley Wood Association Centre (our village
hall) next to the tennis courts. Before we steam ahead with obtaining a
budget and start any preparations we need to get some idea of the support
we might have from the community. How many HW residents would be
interested in attending?
We welcome your thoughts and do let us know by the 31st March.
