Thank you so much to all who joined us yesterday for our first Coffee and Chat of the season! We had some lovely snacks and lively conversations on our sunny Thursday morning.
Our curator Mary also took some time to tell our guests about our Visitors Information Center (VIC) and showed everyone our new guides and brochures this season!

We will be having another Coffee and Chat next Thursday (June 25th) at 10 am. Check our page next week for more details. We hope to see you soon!

On a separate note, if you know of any local businesses that would like to advertise in our VIC please message us. We are always looking to recommend our local businesses to our tourists!
