Come along and enjoy the very last Summer of Play event - this Saturday at 2 pm in Hugh Ripley Hall. Watch the Ripon Dance Academy and have a go!

The final events are coming up shortly in the Summer of Play - Scavenger hunts at Fountains and the Ripon Dance Academy demo and taster session at Hugh Ripley Hall.

From 11-3 at the Fountains Deer Park each day over the Bank Holiday weekend, visitors can pick up a paper bag and card of scavenger hunt items from the Studley car park and see how many they can get! They can then take their nature treasures home.
Parking charges apply for non-members but free parking is available at the Visitor Centre.

Ripon Dance Academy will be putting on a demo and taster session at 2pm on 4 September in the Hugh Ripley Hall. They cater for those who just want to dance for recreation as well as those who want to improve their technique. The 'Open Afternoon' is for children of all ages. Watch demonstrations of several dance genres by our Elite Dancers; classical ballet, modern jazz, lyrical, acrodance and tap. Then try ballet and jazz taster classes (separate classes for 5-10 year olds and 11+).

Come along and enjoy! ... See more
