One of the Ryedale elves has told me that Father Christmas is planning to visit Rosedale Abbey on this coming Monday, 2 December, and will be stopping outside the school gates at around 4.40pm.
See you all there!
Helen and Craig are delighted to announce that the tea room in Abbey Stores is back open for business after an extensive re-decoration over the last week.
They would also like to thank all who helped to raise £406 at yesterday’s bingo night in aid of Hospice UK and also those who contributed in other events which have now brought in a total of over £5,500 for the charity – a magnificent effort all round.
The Howard Hebron Band will be playing in The Coach House Inn on Saturday 23 November from 9.00pm. Details/ tickets from www.coachhouse.co.uk
The Rosedale Show AGM will be held in the Updale Reading Room on 20 November 2019 at 7.00pm.
All are welcome to attend.
Because of recent calendar sales and follow-on donations from the Antiques Evening the Church Appeal now stands at £29,540 – many thanks to all for your continued support from The Save Rosedale Abbey Church Appeal Committee
As part of the 80th anniversary celebrations of Rosedale’s Women’s Institute, Dr Richard Smith, of Smith Watkins of Sheriff Hutton, gave an illustrated talk in the Updale Reading Room on Monday evening on the history of the ceremonial trumpet, how his firm makes them and how they are played at State ceremonial occasions.
Some forty members from Rosedale and neighbouring Women’s Institute branches thoroughly enjoyed Richard Smith’s fascinating and amusing presentation and the lively question and answer session that followed.
And thanks, of course, to all who contributed to the delicious supper afterwards.
