Metheringham Village Hall News - Autumn 2009

With the mid summer (spring clean) finished, including the refurbishment of the floor, the hall now looks great. This is thanks to the hard work and long hours given by the dedicated team of John, Anne and Carol. "Well Done."

Due to the high cost of the floor we will be asking all hirers to treat it with the respect it deserves.

Sketch plans have been presented to the Parish Council for the proposed exterior alterations. It is intended that this will form a more welcoming entrance and fenced off area leading in from the car park. Along with this a replacement facia and guttering is proposed for the Fen Road elevation.

To raise funds for this project and everyday maintenance cost we are putting together a number of events for the coming season

Our first event is the ever popular 50/50 Auction on 5 September. The sale starts at 10.00 but viewing is from 8.00 courtesy of our auctioneer John Duggins.
On 9 September Harmony Lincs, a local singing group, will be holding a vocal rehearsal from 7.30 pm which the public are allowed to FREE of charge.
Our first ever Celebration of Arts, Crafts and Hobbies event is proving so popular that we have now closed the allocation of tables. This event will be on 26 September from 9.00 am.
The New Age Kurling is due to start on Friday 11 September, with the first evening FREE for all to try their skill. We are ALL beginners so there will be no need for anyone to feel embarrassed. We hope to make this a regular event through the winter months. Come along at 7.30 pm - ALL WELCOME.

The Management Committee wish to thank all residents for their support during the summer season and look forward to seeing you for the autumn events.

Please watch out for notices posted on the notice board and around the village.

The Hall is for the community. Let us build on a firm foundation and make the most of an excellent asset. If you have any ideas for events /activities you feel we should consider please write to:
