PRESIDENT Jane Bell welcomed members to the July meeting of Crowton WI. She congratulated the Cheshire Show committee as the group entry came third and individual entries also did very well.
Members were reminded to hand in their entry forms for the Produce Show which takes place on September 2. There will be another games evening on July 23 as they have proved very popular. The luncheon club visited Abbey Wood on July 14 and if there is enough interest there will be a bowls match on July 16. The next Group Bowls event takes place on September 17 and the Group meeting is in October.
There will be no meeting next month as it is the annual trip on August 5. This year they are off to Anglesey to visit another WI, enjoy some retail therapy and visit the National Trust property of Plas Newydd.
Fred Jones was the speaker for the evening and gave a talk entitled “Oh what a carry on”. Fred is a Toastmaster and he told some very amusing stories about his experiences at different weddings. He said the father of the bride is always the one with tears in his eyes and that marriage is as popular as ever.
The speaker for the September meeting will be Jane Langdon who will talk about “Riding for the Disabled”. Visitors and potential new members are always welcome.
