Since
we were set up in May, we have been busy making contact with people outside the
Metheringham area who are able and willing to assist us. The help given to us by
North Kesteven District Council has already been referred to a number of times
in this Newsletter, and we are guided at our meetings by Helen Turner, the
Council's Community Partnerships and Lottery Officer.
We are also fortunate that District Councillor Bill Chambers attends our
meetings and offers the benefit of his advice. Lee Dolby, the Council's Sports
Outreach Officer, has been to one of our meetings to let us know of the range of
expertise that he is able to put at our disposal.
We met Buce Kelsey, the Sports Development Officer for Lincolnshire County
Council one sunny afternoon in August (yes, there was one). A few, of us took
him on a conducted tour of village facilities. Bruce is the County Council's
official observer at our meetings and he was not at all impressed with the metal
containers that our football teams use as changing rooms!
Our local County Councillor, Rob Kendrick, has asked to be kept up to date with
copies of the minutes of our meetings, and is always at hand if we need him.
Most recently we have made contact with a number of officials from "Sport
England". Hopefully more about that in the next Newsletter.
Maybe
you know of someone or some organisation that we should be in touch with? If so
please let us know.
