1 March 2022 - New Secretary needed for Mission Hall Trust; Coffee Morning; Fallen tree
Hello everyone
The Mission Hall Trust need some assistance and say “Pam Dawson-Hollis who has been secretary to the Mission Hall Committee for many years really has resigned and we really do need to find someone to fill the gap that her resignation causes. We need a person, a man or a woman to be part of the committee, to take the minutes at meetings, type them up and distribute them via email to committee members. Also to deal with occasional correspondence. This is a vital role within the important job done by the Trustees and committee in the management and maintenance of this Sutton Poyntz community resource. Committee meetings are held approximately monthly in the daytime and usually in the hall. The committee are a friendly helpful bunch who will be pleased to welcome a new volunteer to the team. If you think this is something you might be able to do or would like to have a chat about the role please do not hesitate to ring either Anthea Heathershaw on 01305 834375 or Sue Davis on 01305 568804”
On the subject of the Mission Hall, the March Coffee Morning will be taking place in the Hall this coming Friday, 4 March between 10.30am and noon. For the usual £3 you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, lots of good conversation and of course a piece of delicious homemade cake. If you fancy the latter but don’t have time to spare for the chat, drop in and purchase a piece to take away.
As you can see, a large tree fell beside the Mission Hall during the recent storms. There was a meeting going on in the Hall at the time, and one of the members went home early at 11.45am but saw nothing untoward. However when everyone left fifteen minutes later the tree was in the position shown in the photograph. If a person or car had been in the way it could have been quite serious. A big thank you to everyone who sent me a photograph. You were quick off the mark because the tree was first moved then taken away very promptly. As were most such fallen trees throughout the area following rapid and hard work by our local council workmen. Well done to them.
Stay safe and smiling
Regards
Chris
