Dear Friends,
The Rotary Club of Kew Gardens (www.kewrotary.org.uk) invite you, partners and friends to a tour of Townmead allotments, off Townmead Road/Kew Meadows Path, Kew TW9 4EN on Wednesday 13th. July at 18.30 hrs. and at 19.15 hrs. afterwards at the adjacent Putney Town Rowing Club, in the bar upstairs.

Entry to the allotments is at the far left corner of the free/unrestricted car park. The gate will be open….
We will be providing a couple of rounds of luxury mixed sandwiches per person in the bar area and numbers are strictly limited to the first 40  email confirmations to me by latest Monday 11th., which I will acknowledge, and will assure your booking.
Guests please pay minimum £10 cash donation to Rotarian Suzanne Sheffer in the Rowing Club bar area on arrival.  There will be a cash bar there until 21.00 hrs. Any surplus takings will go to our Rotary Ukraine Crowdfunder on our website.

NOTE: We are most grateful to Ottolenghi Restaurant, at 63-65 Marylebone Lane W1U 2RA who have generously fully sponsored our sandwiches for the evening, which will be prepared by their chef/Rotary friend Francis Pereira. Please in turn support them - ottolenghi.co.uk  Tel: 02031481040.

Additional attractions…..

Allotment-holder Jenny Sneesby has kindly agreed to talk to small groups about her bees on Plot No. 9.

Richard  will be on hand to explain a bit about allotments, and excite you about vegetable growing!

Rowing Club member John Hickling has agreed to not only waive the usual venue hire fee; and man the bar on the evening for us; but will also briefly talk through current PTRC activities.

We look forward to your early booking! (If you’ve 'missed the boat’ I’ll email you back on 12th!!)
