2012 DATES FOR YOUR DIARY!

Sunday 26th February - Pre-Season Cleaning Day

Come and join us in getting the windmill ready for the 2012 season!  We meet at 10am and are finished by lunchtime.  Open to all members, friends and any new volunteers, this is a jolly affair although you do get pretty grubby.  Bring dustpans, brushes, rubber gloves and any other useful cleaning products and implements.  A drink at The Swan afterwards is promised to anyone still having the energy at the end.  Please let Sue Challen know if you are planning to come along.

 

Saturday 7th April - First Day of the 2012 Season

Our first day of the new season, we'll be open from 2pm to 5pm for refreshments and guided tours.  We will also be open on Easter Sunday and Easter Monday.  A busy weekend - we hope to see you there!

 

Saturday 12th May & Sunday 13th May - Mills on Air Weekend

Wilton Windmill is host to an amateur radio station from about 9am on both days.  Colin G4GBP and some friends will be communicating with the amateur radio fraternity and telling them all about Wilton Windmill as part of the Mills on Air weekend, an event supported by the Society for the Preservation of Ancient Buildings.  Everyone is welcome to come and see the amateur radio in action and more information can be found here.  Please note that the shop, refreshments, loos and guided tours will be available only during our normal opening hours (Sunday 2pm to 5pm).
