Wine and Cheese at the Village Hall
Tuesday 23 April from 7.30 pm. You are invited to get to know the hall and meet your Dry Drayton neighbours. During the evening we will have our Annual Meeting, normally a short affair. Following the Annual Meeting we’ll continue with the informal evening. Come with your ideas. If you’d like to help us manage the hall that would be great but if you just want the wine & cheese and to meet your neighbours we’d love to see you. You can see more about the village hall or make a booking online by visiting our website: https://drydraytonvillagehall.org.uk/ . We have a stage. We have a big screen. Maybe you came to the Coronation screening last May? Would you like to have another curry night. Can you help? All welcome! (from Judith Bennetton, DDVH Management Committee)
