A FINE programme of activities is planned for Arkendale WI over the coming summer months so take out your diaries ladies!
At Minskip Village Hall on Wednesday, July 2, Eunice Cransfield is to tell us about “Science in a Shopping Basket.”
Later in the month on Sunday, July 20, it is the annual Aldborough and Boroughbridge Show. As always this promises to be a great d
ay out for all the family with the usual WI marquee for tea, coffee and cakes.
On August 6, there is to be a Garden Party at Rowangarth, Arkendale Road, Ferrensby.
All are welcome, just bring along your favourite savoury, salad or sweet dish for a Pot Luck Supper. The time is half an hour earlier than usual, 7pm to take advantage of the evening sunlight. Arrangements are in hand to hold the supper indoors in the unusual event of the weather being inclement.
Andy Barton is making a return visit to the WI on Wednesday, September 3, in order to demonstrate the Making of Willow Lanterns. Do join us and have a try for yourself.
Anyone wishing to join the WI for the remainder of 2008 can pay the subscription for 2009 immediately and thus enjoy the benefits of 15 months subscription for the price of 12 months. Good to see a bargain in these days of rising prices.
If you would like further information about any of the above activities then please call our President, Jean Stokes on 01423 340517.
The committee hope you all have a lovely summer with no flooding this year.
Vivienne Glover.
