A good news story! The bad news was that the mower and strimmers Marnhull Cricket Club used to mow the Marnhull children’s playground, were stolen from the club’s storage shed.
The good news is that thanks to generosity of Dike’s Superstore in Stalbridge and their ‘Making a Difference Locally Fund’, the club have been able to purchase a new mower ready for the grass cutting season to begin. The fund donated £500 to the club to replace the stolen machinery.
Pictured here with the mower in the playground are Tony Clarke, long-time volunteer who mows the playground, Arthur and George two current Marnhull CC Youth players and Frank who was happily playing on the rocking horse before being asked to join the photoshoot.
