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. Dry, hot and sunny.
Another dry, fine day with widely blue skies and plenty of strong sunshine. A few fair weather clouds bubbling up. Feeling hot inland with generally light winds, though a touch cooler and breezier along the coasts. Maximum temperature 32 °C.
Staying dry this evening with plenty of late sunshine. Clear skies and light winds overnight may allow some patchy mist and fog to form by dawn. Feeling warm and muggy. Minimum temperature 15 °C.
Temperatures a degree or two lower on Sunday, though still widely very warm with sunny spells and light winds. More cloud in the afternoon with a few showers possible later. Maximum temperature 30 °C.
Turning more changeable next week with showers at times, these sometimes heavy and thundery. Temperatures briefly dropping back closer to the seasonal average.
