White Christmas

If there is sufficient interest Stuart will organise a coach trip to see Tom in White Christmas at the Sunderland Empire:

Hi, one or two people have asked if I am arranging a Coach which Warringtons have confirmed they will do.
Rosemary and I are going up to the opening night with some of our family from Kenya to ‘ check it out’.  We are then staying the night at the Seaton Lane Inn Seaham County Durham some 7 miles from the Theatre.

If any one would like to consider a later group trip, firstly it is about three and a half hours in a Coach, so we would go to a Matinee at 14.30 pm. We could go in the Coach and stop for lunch at the Seaton Lane Inn just 7 miles short of the Theatre then after the Show return. So it will be a long day.

So if persons could let me know at my Office 01629 582297 or home 336 . Matinees are on a Wednesday and a Saturday. I thought perhaps going in the first two weeks of December if there was interest, around 10 persons have asked me at the moment.

Pilates

Formation of a Pilates Committee – Tomorrow night at 7.30pm. 
Please come along and support this venture, which hopefully may lead to subsided classes for teenagers and the over 60’s.

We are hoping to apply for a grant to subsidise Pilates for 11-18 year olds and the over 60s. We already have a lively group of teenagers who have a class from 7.30 -8.30pm on a Wednesday, but we would like to reduce the amount they pay to encourage more to take part. We would also like to apply for funding to hold some taster classes for the over 60s, with gentle stretching exercises that could be done in a chair for those with reduced mobility. Due to the availability of the hall they would probably take place in the afternoon, maybe followed by refreshments.

In order to apply for a grant we have to be a group with a bank account. We are intending to keep this as simple as possible with minimal committee members and meetings, however we will need to have an inaugural meeting to agree a constitution and appoint committee members and this will take place at 7.30pm on 3rd November, immediately after the Pilates session, at the Memorial Hall.

Please come and support this, whether you currently do Pilates or not. Anyone with ideas for the over 60s sessions would be particularly welcome.     Rebecca 390318
