🛹 But here’s the real deal: @camprubicon are hosting skate and scoot sessions for beginners at the Skate Park starting at 10:30 am. Whether you’re a newbie or just want to brush up on your skills, this is your chance to roll with the pros. Spaces are limited, so snag your spot now: link in bio

🎨 There’s tons more going on: dance with Bop About Dance’s drop-in disco, get artsy with Wiltshire Scrapstore, and rock some wild face paint.
🏉 Bradford on Avon Rugby Club and Bradford Town Youth FC will be there with skill sessions, games, and competitions. 
🐝And for all you eco-warriors, Climate Friendly BoA will show you how to make bee-friendly seed balls and bug hotels.
