APRIL

In March, we had a lovely evening at Lowdham Village Hall when 80 members enjoyed a night of Bingo with a wonderful supper of pie & peas. The Bingo prize money was allocated to a line, 2 lines, then a full house and was for a good amount of money each time. Between playing for money, they played an alternative game of bingo for a prize. Well done to anyone who went home a little richer. Don’t worry if you missed this event, as we are going to do it again in October!

We also have our annual Kurling Competition on Thursday 12 September at Lowdham Village Hall. For those of you with a head for heights, we are going Gliding on 16 August (reserve date 23 August).

Are you sorting out your WI programmes for the next year? Do you have an empty date? If so, why not hire our federation Kurling sets or our Bingo machine? It is just £20 per set for the Kurling, and you can easily have 40 people with one set, but if you have more members or you wanted to open it up to husbands/partners and make it a social night, we do have 2 sets. You could either run it yourself or a member of the Sports & Leisure team can come and help you. How about a game of Bingo? We have a proper Bingo machine which displays the numbers as they are called and is just £10 to hire.  There is also a list of the calling names for each number if you want to use that.

We also have several sets of Rummikub, which we are happy to bring out and teach your members how to play. We hold an annual fun competition night of Rummikub. How many of you know you can also get Rummikub word? We bought it for my son for Christmas and it’s great. We were wondering if this would be something different to scrabble and if members would be interested or not – let me know. wendyrichardson@nottswi.org.uk
