Grease lightning!
COMMUNITY CENTRE NEWS By TANIA JONES THE Community Centre took part in last month's carnival day by entering a float in the procession.
We chose Grease as our theme, and had lots of fun dressing up as the characters from Rydell High School.
Thank you so much to all those involved who helped in any way, but especially to all the wonderful characters with their fantastic costumes who really made it a day to remember.
I would also like to say a huge thank you to Dave Silver from HMS (Hants Motor Salvage) who supplied and drove the float for us.
We all enjoyed ourselves, despite the weather, and we can't wait to do it again next year!
It will be back to business as usual at the centre over the coming months, now that the regular groups will be returning after a much-deserved summer break.
There is an abundance of activities on offer to suit all. New courses include yoga, tai chi, digital cameras, art, French, Spanish, English with IT and model making.
Call in for a copy of our Centre News brochure, which lists details of all the classes and events over the coming month.
The Horticultural Society will be hosting their main summer show Dahlias and Chrysanthemums here on Saturday, September 5, and can promise gorgeous displays and tasty refreshments.
