Back 2 '52

On Monday 4th June As part of the Queens Diamond Jubilee celebration Sutton Veny aims to hold a 1950’s dance in the village hall, glitter ball and all.  Just like Strictly!! They hope to be able to organize some very basic dance lessons - prob on Tuesdays starting in March, so everyone can enjoy the occasion. Waltz, Quickstep, Foxtrot, Swing, old time Valeta, St Bernard’s waltz. Jiving was a little later than that but it was a fun dance so we shall have some of that. Boys and girls welcome and it's all free. Please let us know if you want to get involved.

Our first meeting of 2012

Life Drawing on the 1st of Feb ( THIS WEDNESDAY)- is turning into quite an event. I think we've discovered what gets you out of the house on a cold winters night! What a brave boy our model is...

Everyone is welcome....Free to members/£4 non members. We have bought some bubbly to help the event go with a swing and we have purchased a number of 3B pencils, cartridge paper and erasers (If you have some please bring along, you can also BYO wine- we have glasses). We are expecting quite a few visitors as well as our lovely members so please do drop me a line if you are coming, so we know numbers. Thanks!

And don't forget its time to renew your membership for 2012, and there's never been a better time to join, so please bring along your subs £31.50 on Wednesday, and you're in! 

Look What We Made

I know Christmas seems a long time ago now but I just wanted to show you the gorgeous wreaths our members made during our Annual Wreath Making Event in December. Sharing out our various bundles of greenery and making one enormous mess in the hall rather than at home is the only way to go!

The following week saw our Christmas Party- and we had an evening of laughs watching Chris Addison in standup in Salisbury and dinner at Wagamama's. Thanks for a fabulous night girls! xx

Samaritans Purse Shoebox Thank you

In December, Wendy Case and Judy Cooper took 29 boxes from the Wylye Women to the collection warehouse for the Samaritans Purse Shoebox Appeal. Last year 1.2 million shoeboxes filled with toys, clothes, stationery and sweets were sent from the UK; here's hoping the total has been bumped up this year. This is a fantastic response and added to a total of 68 from Sutton Veny the organisers were bowled over by the efforts of our little ol' WI. Thanks to all who got involved x
