Boats, floats and flags.
Gather on the village green, opposite Gweek Quay, where we’ll be offering nautical inspiration and expertise to make little boats of all kinds. What makes a boat float? What goes on inside them? Rig a sail or say something with flags. We’re bringing some treat buns, but bring your own picnic, or buy lunch, supper, snack or ice cream in the village.
All the activities are free and offered on a drop-in basis, no booking required. Donations welcome.
We won’t be put off by a bit of drizzle and hope you won’t either, but check on the day in case of extreme weather or last-minute changes.
