Riverhill Opening - Wed 8th May 2013

We are pleased to announce that part one of the Riverhill project will be opened by the Mayor of Elmbridge at 4:30pm on Wednesday 8th May 2013.

We have some finishing touches to do between now and the 8th May including the installation of benches, litter bins and the repair of the turf lifted by the regular flooding. But rest assured the protective fencing will be taken down on the 8th so we can take full advantage of the river bank in the better weather. We are indebted to all those who have given of their time freely to enable us to be in this position.

Work will continue after the opening in particular the area to the east of the slipway (where the ground is still too soft at present). An information board will be installed and other finishing touches. We have entered the Riverhill project for two national awards, the results will be announced later in the year.

All CCHT members, and especially those who have donated to the project, are most welcome to join us on the 8th May at 4:30pm. Please congregate on the new turf on either side of the platform, the cutting of the ribbon and the official opening will take place on the platform.
