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 />

Wednesday of the month 10.00<br />
