Games evening Friday and more…

In case you haven’t checked out the Warleggan website* recently, here’s what’s happening…

  • This Friday 18th Oct, the day after tomorrow, we’re having our TableTop Games evening at the hall, starting 7.30pm.  Free entry. Come along and play a few games – and if you have games you’d like to bring along, then please do!  Come and play, or come and watch. There’ll be refreshments, with a licensed bar, hot pasties, and snacks. Plus a raffle.  It’ll be a great relaxing fun evening, a chance to show off your skills, or develop new ones.  Amongst the games we hope to have:  Dominoes, Chess, Drafts, Backgammon, Cards, Othello (or ‘Reversi’), Darts, Cluedo, Bingo, Tri-ominoes, Poker, Jenga,  Connect 4, Kerplunk, Card-Monopoly ...  Bring along your games (including any of the above), or other ones  – Does anyone have table football, for instance?
  • Then, next Wednesday 23 Oct, we have the  History Club Talk on the Pentewan Valley Railway (The Tea Treat Train) by Rob Evans, Jubilee Hall, 7.30pm – if you’re not a member yet, come along anyway – the more the merrier.
  • Some of us may be joining the Farnworth family for Roger’s Day on Sunday 27th October – see details
  • The next Lunch will be on Tuesday 26th November –  all seats must be booked in advance;  £4 a head, two courses – call Jasmina on 01208 821223, or Gill on 821494.
  • Hall hire – remember, anyone is welcome to hire the hall anytime – just check out the hall hire pages on the website.
  • Why not organise a quiet skittles evening for you and your friends (the skittles set is now kept in the hall, and is available for use  –  £10 plus standard hall hire charge)  –  or why not hold your birthday party there?
  • And we’ve got a great kitchen, so if you want to cook a meal for your friends, or get someone in to do it, then get in touch.  If you do it before the end of the month, it’ll be just £5 on top of the hall hire charge, which doesn’t even cover the likely electricity charges  –  be advised though that from 1st November, the charge for use of the full kitchen will be £10 for regular users, and £20 for occasional users, still great value.
  • And Christmas is coming soon  – book now if you’d like to hold a party at the Jubilee Hall.
  • Oh, and remember to keep New Year’s Eve free, as we shall be bringing the new year in at the hall with a Ceilidh – with refreshments, and we’ll be applying for a licensed bar to stay open til late.
