The blazing hot sun has gone, and the welcome rain has arrived, more or less, but the sun was shining on the beach at the COATS Centre late last month.
The event includes donkeys, sand, beach toys, a photo booth, and seagulls – lots of seagulls.
More than 50 senior citizen visitors to the centre in Pinewood Avenue enjoyed Seaside-themed days with a traditional lunch of fish and chips followed by ice cream and afternoon tea and cakes on Tuesday.
Day two on Wednesday was a picnic lunch followed by cooling ice lollies.
A few took off their shoes and socks for a paddle.
Gwen did some sandcastle building and the donkey rides proved a great draw.
Both days concluded with a seaside sing-along and dancing to pop favourites with entertainers Anthony and Tricia.
Everyone headed home tired but happy with instructions to empty the sand from their shoes and towels before entering the house.
If you are a senior citizen in Crowthorne or the surrounding area why not book your first visit to try us out in good time for our next theme event … Hallowe’en.
