The Wine and Cheese Night, also with a quiz and raffle, in aid of Macmillan Cancer Support in Abbey Stores on Friday evening was packed out. With a wide variety of delicious cheeses and copious glasses of wine to encourage them, those attending raised the marvellous sum of £660 for a very worthy cause
Hearty thanks to Nicola who organised the evening and to Craig and Helen for their stalwart support.
A reminder that the next Coffee Morning in the Coach House is on Saturday 2 November and will include the annual WI Craft Fair, so call in and take the excellent opportunity to start your Christmas shopping!
The coffee morning this Saturday is in support of the Rosedale Community Fund. Since the coffee mornings for the community fund began in 2016 it has over the years supported the following for Rosedale.
Please support the coffee morning. Who knows what will be next in the community.
Also the Domino Drives begin again on the third Thursday of each month for Reading Room funds. First one Thursday 17th October 7.30
The Rosedale Agricultural, Horticultural and Industrial Show was held on the Milburn Field in Rosedale Abbey on Saturday 17 August. The show was blessed with excellent weather and dry ground this year which made for a grand day out for the large number of visitors ( currently thought to be around 4000) who enjoyed the many attractions on offer in the new show rings layout and exhibition areas, along with a wide variety of trades stands. A short selection of photos are below to give a flavour of the day:
As always, the show would never happen without the stirling efforts of the all-volunteer committee and the many other helpers giving up their time to run the entrance gates, control the traffic and parking and act as stewards at all the classes and events within the very full show programme.
Planning for the 2025 show is already under way to build on the resounding success of the 2024 show and should anyone wish to help out next year please keep an eye out on social media and on www.rosedaleshow.com, or contact the Secretary on rosedaleshowsecretary@gmail.com
See you all in ’25!
