Craft Club August

Our Craft Club are busy working on a new Banner for Sandford WI. The banner has been designed by Jill one of our craft ladies and it will contain pictures of local scenes and many of the activities of our WI. It promises to be a lovely piece of craft.
Our picture shows our ladies with their heads together working on ideas. Anyone is welcome to come along on the first and third Thursday every month at Sandford Village Hall. If you are not into craft it doesn't matter just come along for a chat and a cup of tea!

Book Club for July

We are reading two books before our next meeting on 23rd August as we have had a break for summer holidays. The first is entitled  The Trouble with Goats and Sheep by Joanna Cannon. The story is set during the long hot summer of 1976 which will be remembered by a lot of our members. It is told through the eyes of a 10 year old girl called Grace and is both amusing and in parts very poignant.



 Our second book is I See You which completely different is a psychological thriller by Claire Macintosh and is set around the London Underground.

We will be meeting at Wendy's on 23rd August at 7.30. Please contact Denise for any queries.

Book Club

The Book Club met this evening and we had a very lively discussion about the recent book and a very good sociable evening.

Our next book is Second Chance Tea Shop by Fay Keenan.

We  will be more than interested in this book because the author's parents live in Sandford. It is Fay's first novel and is described as a perfect, romantic summer read.

Our next meeting will be held on May 24th

May meeting

 Our May meeting will give us the opportunity to discuss and decide on the two resolutions going before the AGM in Liverpool.
There will also be a short cookery demo from two of our members.

Roman Way Spring Group Meeting

Thank you to our hosts Hewish WI for a splendid Evening and  many congratulations to our member Vicky Cheater who won the trophy for best Tarte au Citron. Apparently, "it was to die for" in the words of our President.

April 2017 Easter Parade

Our April meeting was an opportunity for members to show their artistic skills. We were pleased to have a return visit from Steve Wheeler who told us ....."Art is for everybody - have some fun." So we did, using our artistic eyes and skills to blend watercolours and paint our vases of flowers beautifully-and our artistic talents didn't end there. 

The competition to produce an Easter bonnet stretched some members' imaginations to produce the most amazing head wear as our photo show.

Congratulations to all who entered in the fun .
