Lewis
Marsh Fund Community Screening Number 4 by Sally Reid
Each year the local boys football club has organised what is
known as The Lewis Marsh 11-a-side Pre-Season Friendly Tournament.
It covers teams from the ages of under 8 to under 17 (well
actually this year the under 17’s didn’t come). It raises a
fantastic amount for the fund and is a great weekend of fun and
sport. I say this with
double pride being a member of the club and also fund manager for
the Lewis Marsh Fund.

Parachute
Jump in memory of Michael Andrews by Fay Hurley
We were lucky to have a clear find day on the 6th, so two car loads of friends and very anxious parents made an early start for Dunkerswell airfield in Devon.
Claire, Ester and Andrew went to get dressed up and instructed for their jump.
Bob, my brother said, ‘2 miles, that’s not too bad, that’s just up to the shops and back at home’

Garden
Open Day or what a blooming weekend by Sylvia Salisbury
The first day dawned fresh and
clear – Er well, actually, no it didn't. For the beginning of
June, it was unseasonably cold and wet. This was the
culmination of our own personal marathon; we had been growing plants
for months. What had seemed like a good idea, had now turned
into an uphill battle just to keep everything watered.
