Mayoral Engagements
The Royal Borough was recently visited by The Mayor of Tronoto's CIMA Cricket Team. The group were here for two weeks and during that time visited the Mayor's Parlour and played several matches against local teams.
(pictures show the Mayor with members of the cricket team on the balcony of the Mayor's Parlour and the Deputy Mayor and Deputy Mayoress at a match being played at Chessington Cricket Club's Grounds).
