Learning about town’s history

Local Brownies were on a hunt around Spalding recently as they learned about some of the history of the town.

Clues were placed around the centre based on the Portrait of a Town bronze sculptures dotted around.

A total of 46 Brownies took part in the event from the 3rd and 5th Spalding and 1st Pinchbeck packs.

Organiser Kerry Weetman of 3rd Spalding Brownies, said: “The girls thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

“We had beautiful weather and they got to learn more about the sculptures, why they are there and various other facts about Spalding along the way.

“The hunt included a stop at Marco’s ice cream parlour who kindly stayed open late for us, which went down very well with the girls.”
