It may be the middle of summer as you read this but some people have already begun collection items to put on their shoeboxes for the annual Samaritan's Purse Christmas Shoebox appeal.
This fund exists primarily to help students in higher and further education, with the purchase of their books and equipment, by making discretionary grants.
An Ice-cream day will be held on Saturday 5 September at Beamley Bungalow
Following on from our press release in the last Pump about a Grant that we have been awarded, we can report that the Ball Machine should be with us by August - just in time for Club Coach, Dan Loftus to use on our coaching courses in the holidays, which is great!

Thank You to all those who supported the Hemyock Indian Take-Away in April. Unseasonably mild. Bright to start, turning cloudier later.
Sunny spells and variable cloud around to start. This cloud building from the northwest into the afternoon with rain to follow. Feeling unseasonably mild with blustery southwesterly winds. Maximum temperature 19 °C.
Rain continuing through the evening and overnight, sometimes heavy. Clearing to the southeast into the early hours. Feeling noticeably cooler behind the rain, with lighter winds. Minimum temperature 8 °C.
A chilly start to Friday, leading to drier and brighter day with plenty of sunny spells, although with a risk of showers throughout. Feeling noticeably cooler in the northwesterly breeze. Maximum temperature 16 °C.
Mostly dry with sunny spells through the weekend. Chilly nights bring a risk of frost and patchy fog. A few showers possible into Monday.
