THE WICK COUNTRY PARK CALENDAR OF EVENTS, 2026

Our dates for events in 2025 have now been set. We would very much like to be able to offer a more extensive programme, but we still have a chronic shortage of active supporters to plan and run our events. Unless we attract significant additional support to manage the Calendar, we are likely to continue to adopt a 'low profile' well into 2025. If you have enjoyed our past events, or have ideas for future different events, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do volunteer to help to make them happen! Please visit the Volunteering page to read about ways in which you can become involved with the Friends' group, or contact us for more insight into what would be involved.

If you are curious about our events and want to know more about what it is like to be there, please see our Past Events page (updated Wednesday, 09-Mar-2022 18:22:14 GMT), or for a more comprehensive set of reports, please see our on-line archive (updated Friday, 14-Feb-2025 11:04:33 GMT).
