Mayflower's sporting gesture
Sunday, 9am - NEW sports equipment has been installed at Boston and District Athletic Club's new home with help from a housing association.
Boston Mayflower, together with its maintenance contractor Kier Building Maintenance, helped work on the BDAC's new B-Hive venue in Punchbowl Lane, Boston.
They have installed a long jump pit and pole vault boxes, and put up wooden panels donated by Finnforest around the interior walls.
Development officer for BDAC Peter Arnott said: "We were really delighted with the help and grateful for it.
"Everyone who has come to training sessions here since the work started has been really excited and impressed by the way the venue is shaping up.It has created a real buzz."
The club hopes the venue will be fully-finished before the start of the 2012 Olympics so it can host events of its own for athletes from around the country- and encourage more youngsters to take part in athletics.
Boston Mayflower's repairs manager David Collett said: "Our maintenance contractors, Kier, Aaron and DM Barthorpe, are committed to putting something back into the community they work in and have embraced Boston Mayflower's vision of promoting thriving, sustainable communities.
"In partnership with Boston Mayflower, the contractors have pledged to contribute towards the delivery of that vision and look forward to helping further worthy causes."
