APPEAL FOR TREASURER
Jonathan Carroll who has been our treasurer for the last two years has had to give up the role so we are seeking a member to come forward to take this on. There will be a chance to shadow and see what is expected before taking over. Please speak to Jonathan about it if you have specific questions or Bryonny Marten email bryonnymarten@icloud.com   ​​

SPONSORED WALK
This year's SSBS sponsored walk on 16th July will be finishing at the Land (starting at Wiley's Bridge) and it is hoped to arrange a welcoming party for the weary walkers as they arrive. So those who are already out there will be joined by those who turn up on foot. Lifts back will be arranged as required - or it is possible to flag down the No 29 Bus right by the land (bus fare £2.20 to town).

Sponsorship forms are available by downloading as a word file here Roam  in in the Footsteps of the Romans. or as a pdf here. There will be copies at the Coffee Morning. If anyone wants more details of the walk (which will be mostly level this year - definitely no hills!) or a copy of the sponsor form leave a message on 01273 483228 or email debznjohn@yahoo.co.uk 

Full description of the route (and where the Romans roamed!) will be supplied on the day and John Crawford will guide you along. Regular refreshment stops have been planned in.

​SPORTS DAY AND DOG SHOW
​
South Street's Sports Day and Dog Show will be on Saturday 19th August by the Snowdrop.  We will have some new events this year using the amazing racing ponies from the recent Race Night ... all will be revealed. Other Bonfire Societies have already asked if they can enter a team; so looks like it is becoming a fixture in people's calendars.
