This group will help fund raise for further improvements in the Park in conjunction with the County Council who are responsible for the Park’s day to day maintenance. To this end a public meeting has been called to be held on Friday 14th March 2008 at 1030am in the Warrior Room, Pater Hall, Pembroke Dock when those who wish to be associated with this project can become a Friend. Those wishing to be Friends will then approve a Constitution and elect a Committee.
