Just a quick update to keep you all informed of all our news.

Annual points competition: We won't be holding the points competition this year .
This is due to lack of response from members.
We would love to know why there is such a low uptake for this competition?
Let us know how we can improve this and make you want to take part.
Next year we hope to add more shows to the list as we have lost many shows that are on the old card.

Unfortunately we had to cancel the strawberry tea party due to bad weather, such a shame as Bethan had worked very hard to arrange this. Hopefully we can arrange another social later in the year.

Our performance teams were victorious at the performance show with our teams winning both 1st and 2nd places !
