Venue 2 Nevendon Woods = Trails + Tours

Trails
I would like to create a trail with rangers/Essex Wildlife Trust that I can map and that initially we take schookl kids on. I would give each child a paper bag, some paper, some wax crayons, pencils etc. They could collect as much evidence by way of leaves, bark rubbings, petals, berries etc of wildlife and nature. We would then come back to class and draw our finds, and perhaps we could make up some mythical beasts that we think we may h ave seen in the Wild Woods. The drawings will be gathered and turned into a poster/wallchart like the ones which The Guardian Newspaper have lately been giving out. This poster along with a map of the trail would go into a bag printed up with a special Northlands PArk logo, created with your help. I thought we could make up a Coat of Arms. I would then organise an further event where U could collect your Goody Bag of Poster and Map and do the trail yourself guided by the children's drawings.

Guided Tour
I have commissioned artist and writer to make up a story, with some truth in it, of a local legendary figure. This story will go into the publication. I will then create a Guided Tour like the tours in London around the EastEnd for Jack the Ripper for instance. The Guided Tours will be a further event for thosae of U brave enough to come along.

At the end of all the trails and tours how would we rename the woods?
