As we get closer to Freedom Day some of our activities are moving from Zoom to in-person meetings. And due to the upheaval in the holiday season some of the dates, times and locations may have changed as well – look out for the highlights in purple!
Allotment
Just a reminder that The Gardening Girls are meeting every Monday (weather permitting) from 11am (until we run out of steam…) at the allotment in Stevens Street. The plots are thriving and visitors are always welcome! Our plots are right at the bottom of the main road down towards the cricket field. Hope to see you there soon!
Craft Club
Due to some scheduling challenges the July Craft Club Meeting will actually take place on the 30th June. And pending the weather, we will be meeting in the garden of one of the members at 2.30pm and start work on our contribution to the
THE HARBOROUGH CROCHET CHRISTMAS TREE Project
Meeting details will be confirmed by email.
Book Club
Our subject for the month for July will “WOMEN” and so we have decided to read:

Wednesday, 28th July
Monthly Meeting – 6pm – July is usually a holiday month without a meeting, but if the meeting restrictions should indeed be lifted and the weather plays ball we are hoping to organise a Picnic in Welland Park to get everyone together and catch up. So keep the day free for the moment and we’ll keep you posted.
