IN October this year we will be celebrating our 75th birthday, which is quite an achievement, and we want members to think about how we should mark the occasion. The WI has been an important part of village life and has brought women together forming lifelong friendships both within the local area and the county as well as offering the opportunity to try a variety of activities that otherwise wouldn’t have been available.
For our April meeting we welcomed back Sharron Lobb to give another of her brilliant craft workshops. This time we were shown how to prepare photo frames by painting them before applying brightly coloured backing paper and ribbon to create some very decorative items.
The competition was a favourite coaster which was judged by Sharron
1st Ros Coy 2nd Felicity Penneycard 3rd Wendy Symons
Flower of the Month
1st Gail Burnett 2nd Angie Richardson 3rd Brenda Harris
Our next meeting will be held on Friday 3rd May at 7.15pm when Nicola Wills will be our guest speaker talking about one of Cornwall’s most tragic maritime disasters when a 19th century westcountry migrant ship was lost on the Cornish coastline near Newlyn. This will be an open meeting so everyone is invited to come along and hear a very interesting talk.
