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. A few showers and staying rather breezy.
Isolated showers continuing overnight, mainly towards the north coast, otherwise a dry night with clear spells. Remaining rather breezy despite winds easing, helping to keep temperatures generally up, but cooler in the countryside. Minimum temperature 8 °C.
