April 2024
We have sadly decided it is time to step away from organising the British Stone Skimming.
We have had wonderful support from volunteers and competitors since 2008 and the whole event has been a pleasure.
If anyone would like to take on the organisation we would be happy to help with advice but would not be able to offer any hands on help.
We are very grateful for the help given by the Meddins family at Bowhouse Equestrian for the first three competitions. We had no idea if it would be a success but they were happy to to take a chance with us. Since then Mr and Mrs Parish have been equally kind with their support, along with everyone else at Walcot.
We will miss the day immensely but go away with many happy memories and the knowledge that a lot of fun was had by so many people. Hopefully skimming stones will continue to be a happy activity for years to come.
Thank you everyone.
Heather Ashton and Dave Pope.
