Events this year? 

Wine Tasting – 
Debbie checked prices at Adnams but still too expensive.
It  was suggested we organise a DIY Wine Tasting Quiz: attendees need to guess the price, country of origin and best description of the wine. To be discussed further at next meeting. 

Quiz and Fish and Chips and/or Race Night
To be held in autumn/winter.

Live and Local
It was decided that the costs were too much given the limited space available.

Donation     
The £2,500 donation to the management committee has so far been used for the Christmas Tree and Christmas Lights and toaster and cafetieres leaving just under £2000.

Possible further options- 
It was decided that new stacking chairs weren’t required and it was noted the vicar was quite happy to leave the book exchange in the church front.

Range Cooker   
It was reported that the range had been checked.

Parish Council    
Funding cost of 2 large planters, 4 soldier silhouettes and 4 poppys for Remembrance – Dave kindly agreed to finish the work on this with some assistance from David and Richard.

Treasurer’ Report    
Balance on the account of circa £2700 including the remainder of the donation

Date of Next Meeting
it was agreed that the next meeting would be on 25th June at 7pm
