A cracking, and well supported event comes to Walsall Wood this Saturday.

Now that summer is here, the nights have opened out and hopefully the good weather is upon us, why not take the family up to Oak Park today (Saturday 31st May 2014)? There, and at Walsall Wood Football club next door, you’ll find plenty of fitness and sport activities to get involved in, all absolutely free of charge. There will also be stalls and all kinds of fun for all the family. If you’ve been feeling the effects of a winter indoors, why not pop over and see what’s on offer?

Previous events have been really popular, so why not pop along and see what it’s all about?
