What
a great way to be able to introduce our first full Newsletter! I am delighted to
announce that MACLA won a bid for lottery funding and has received £3681 from
the National Lotteries Charities Board, as part of the "Millennium Festival
Awards for All" programme.
The money is to buy a computer and "desk-top
publishing software to enable us to create Newsletters without having to rely on
the generous goodwill and assistance of North Kesteven District Council.
The
even better news is that, when we have bought and tested the new equipment we
aim to find ways of making it available to other organisations in our area. This
is a community leisure association, and we have your interests at heart.
On
that note, please take the opportunity to make this Newsletter work for you. It
will be published 3 - 4 times a year, and we hope to distribute it free to every
house in Metheringham and nearby villages.
If
you would like more people to know about your organisation, and perhaps
circulate a diary of events for the next 3 or 4 months, then send me the
information. For non-profit making organisations we will include an item in the
Newsletter free of charge. And for profit-making organisations and businesses we
levy only a small charge to help with our printing costs.
I
look forward to hearing from you.
Geoff Brown, Chairman
(My address is 4 Saxon Close,
Metheringham, LN4 3HQ; or you can phone me on 01526 321490
