Dragon hunters wanted at park

BEAT the boredom this summer with a day out at one of Swindon's country parks.

Visitors to Coate can now not only take part in the usual activities, like walks, fishing and golf, but can do the new Coate Water Dragon Hunt.

The Dragon Hunt is a quiz running throughout the school summer holidays and is fun for all the family.

It's perfect for parents who want educational fun for their children.

Each group uses a treasure map, which, through a series of clues, guides children and adults around Coate Water and lets them experience the natural beauty of the country park and its surroundings.

Children will be able to gain an understanding of the history and wildlife of the park.

The Dragon Hunt is free to enter. There are small prizes to be won but the greatest, most important prize is the discovery of the true, natural, treasures of this stunning country park.

The competition is open to all ages.

Entry forms and treasure maps be downloaded at http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/coatewater/dragonhunt.html. All information is on the entry form.
