Oveg. That’s the abbreviated name chosen for Oxhey’s new environment group.
The initials stand for Oxhey Village Environment Group, which was the name unanimously agreed for the organisation at its first public meeting following inauguration.
It was decided to postpone for further consideration the question of a constitution, but subscriptions were fixed at 25p per person annually with a proviso that if special fighting funds were needed, members would be invited to make additional contributions.
[From the Watford Observer of February 28, 1975]
