The much-awaited moment has arrived! The Bradgate Park Calendar 2024, a captivating celebration of the picturesque Bradgate Park, is now officially on sale. Nature enthusiasts, photography admirers, and local community supporters can now get their hands on this stunning calendar, showcasing the park's ever-changing splendour month after month.
An absolutely fantastic evening at The Bradgate Park 2024 Calendar launch event, marked the start of the calendar sales, with nearly 100 calendars sold on the event night alone. The evening featured a beautiful Ranger led walk through the deer sanctuary followed by a presentation of the winning photographers, with Vince Preston receiving the honour of overall winner, featuring the stunning front cover photo that captures a stolen moment of a regal stag crossing a stream in Bradgate Park in the dappled sunlight.
The Bradgate Park Calendar 2024 captures the essence of the park's breathtaking landscapes through a collection of awe-inspiring photographs, each carefully selected from the public competition that attracted photography talents from near and far.
We would like to extend a massive thank you to the 12 local business sponsors who have wholeheartedly supported this project. Their unwavering commitment and generosity have played a pivotal role in making The Bradgate Park Calendar 2024 a reality, enabling us to share the park's natural wonders with the world while contributing to its preservation.
Purchasing the calendar is a simple and rewarding process. Copies are available online at Bradgate Park's website https://www.bradgatepark.org/bradgate-park-calendar-2024, offering a convenient way to support the park and its valuable initiatives. Additionally, visitors to Bradgate Park can purchase the calendar on-site at any of the charming tea rooms and gift shops, adding a touch of timeless beauty to their lives.
The Bradgate Rotary Club is also actively participating in the calendar's distribution, making it easily accessible to the local community, selling them through the local libraries at Groby, Anstey and Ratby as well as at various local events.
The Bradgate Rotary Club, a friendly and social voluntary organisation, has been instrumental in bringing this project to fruition. Committed to helping local charities raise funds and awareness, as well as supporting international charity projects such as End Polio Now, the club is dedicated to working with the local community, bringing people together for good causes.
This calendar project is more than just a visual delight; it is an initiative driven by passion and community spirit.
