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. Gloomy start, but brighter and warm in the afternoon.
A grey start, but soon turning brighter for most with sunny periods and becoming very warm by midday. Not as hot as previous days. Very isolated late-afternoon or evening showers in the very far southwest. Maximum temperature 24 °C.
Patchy low cloud moves into the southwest with the risk of some more showers. Could turn heavy at times, but staying mild overnight. Minimum temperature 14 °C.
Risk of showers continue through the morning, but slowly easing past midday. Bright and sunny skies returning and remain rather warm for the time of year. Maximum temperature 25 °C.
Remaining settled and dry with plenty of sunny spells. Staying warm to very warm for the rest of the week
