Village Voice <strong>Feb</strong>ruary/March 20<strong>19</strong><br />

CLUBS<br />

& SOCIETIES<br />

Evening WI<br />

Firstly, a date for your diary: Saturday 30th<br />

March at 2.30pm is our next Craft Fair in the<br />

Village Hall. Come and see what you might be<br />

tempted by and enjoy a cuppa with a homemade<br />

cake. There will no doubt be Easter and<br />

Mother’s Day gifts.<br />

January 20<strong>19</strong> brought with it our membership<br />

renewal and instead of welcoming an outside<br />

speaker we enjoy a members’ evening. This<br />

meeting gives us a chance to catch up with<br />

friends after the festive period and to get to<br />

know some of our newer members. We also<br />

usually manage to have a few fun games which<br />

result in much laughter. Members are pictured<br />

laughing at the Dingbat answers. Our<br />

programme of speakers starts in <strong>Feb</strong>ruary with a<br />

talk on Pets As Therapy followed in March by<br />

Nurses Never Run.<br />

In Janaury, we ran the Village Expo, which<br />

was a great success (see page 31 for details). As<br />

a village it is quite astonishing to see the number<br />

and diversity of activities on offer. Surely there<br />

is something for everyone and the New Year is a<br />

good time to try something new? There are a lot<br />

of friendly and welcoming people in our<br />

community, just waiting to include you.<br />

Our regular smaller group activities are back<br />

in full swing: daytime and evening knit and<br />

natter, book club and our popular chomp and<br />

chatter. Further opportunities to participate can<br />

be made in events organised by our County<br />

Federation, ranging from craft workshops and<br />

theatre outings to science investigation and<br />

discovery days. Do come and join us – a warm<br />

welcome awaits you. Pat Hedley, 812645, email:<br />

Morning WI<br />

We started 20<strong>19</strong> with a talk on the History of<br />

Royal Flying in Janaury. In <strong>Feb</strong>ruary we plan a<br />

variety of activities including a fish and chip<br />

lunch, a Bring and Buy and a Beetle Drive.<br />

In March we will learn about brass rubbing.<br />

In April our talk is entitled From Cylinder to the<br />

CD and Beyond which sounds intriguing.<br />

Our craft group are continuing with their<br />

monthly meetings, where they are learning new<br />

skills from each other. It is amazing how many<br />

talents there are amongst our members.<br />

Soon we shall start planning our extra<br />

activities trips so when the weather improves<br />

we can have some days out.<br />

Should you be interested in<br />

coming to a meeting we are at the<br />

Penn & Tylers Green Sports<br />

&Social Club on the third<br />

Wednesday of the month 10.00<br />
