How to be a Christmas Goddess: Nov 2008 Meeting

  • DSCN0638
    A very successful meeting indeed, where we all got a chance to try giftwrapping, pastry making, Christmas crafts and knitting, and to sup mulled wine and eat Lesley's superlatively tasty mince pies!

A Day at the Races

  • Races 3
    WI members attending a day at the races on July 5th 2008. The race was at Sandown and members had a mix of winners and losers, enjoyed a picnic and glorious weather.

Innocent Village Fete

  • DSC01147
    When we were asked to bake 2500 portions of cake for the Innocent Village Fete, we were slightly intimidated by our assertive answer 'yes'! And yet, as can be seen from these fantastic pictures, we succeeded! As well as the traditional cake stall, we ran a second stall where we decorated cakes with kids. What became apparent over the weekend is how awesome all our members are, for putting in so much hard work! We indeed made 2500 portions of cake, and sold nearly all of them! That equated to over £4000 profit for our lovely WI!

Flinging for England

Ultimate_jpg Some of you may remember Alena Papayanis, from the Iceni Frisbee Team, who came to speak to us in Summer 2007 about Ultimate Frisbee.

Well, exciting news! Alena has made the Great Britain team! This is fantastic, so well done, Alena!

Unfortunately, though, unlike professional footballers, the girls don't get copious amounts of sponsorship and six figure salaries, and as a result, need to do some fundraising.

Whilst WI can't directly sponsor them (we're not allowed to sponsor anyone), if, as an individual member, you fancied finding out a bit more, or want to give Alena a hand with her fundraising, you can discover all you need at http://www.gbwomensultimate.com/

Go, Alena! Go GB!
