The mobile library service due to vidit Rosedale Abbey today, 19 Match, has been cancelled because of mechanical problems. The next visit will be on Wednesday 2 April from 1.00 to 3.00pm.

Show time approaches rapidly and so the organizing committee has put out the annual plea for volunteers to come to the Milburn Field on Tuesday evening, 13 August, at 6.00pm to help set up the arenas – if you can please come along, armed with a pair of gardening gloves and a pair of scissors, and a friend or two!

The Show is organised and run entirely by volunteers, so your help with setting up the showground is very important and would be much appreciated – see you there on Tuesday 13 August ay 6.00pm.

The next Coffee Morning in the Coach House Inn will be in aid of the Reading Room/Village Hall and will be on Saturday 1 June from 10.00 to 12.00 am – please come along and support this cause and enjoy the company, cake sales and raffle.

Coincidently, around 80 people from the village and dale gathered in the Coach House In on Friday 19 January 2024 to celebrate Ian ‘Brownie’ Brown’s 80th birthday. It was a well kept surprise and Brownie took a few minutes to recover after his arrival!

Thanks to Dave Oakey and his team in the Coach House Inn for their splendid hosting of the event and to Jan Baker for her coordination of all the details.

As has become a tradition in Rosedale, the auction in aid of the Rosedale Reading Room/Village Hall was a noisy, crowded and joyful occasion which raised around £3,500 thanks to the outstanding generosity of the donors of auction lots and the uninhibited, highly competitive bidding of those in the audience!

As always huge thanks to Dave Oakey and the team at the Coach House for coping with the onslaught, and to Sue Foster and the auction helpers for an outstanding evening – a great start to Christmas.

The Rosedale Reading Room/Village Hall needs your help.

New members and new ideas very welcome.

Rosedale Reading Room AGM followed by a quick ordinary meeting at 7.30pm on Wednesday 1st November 2023 in the Reading Room
