Thanks to The Rotary Club and Scouts for all their hard work over the years.

On a Saturday afternoon at the club we are running Mini/Junior Team Tennis Events for children between the ages of 6 to 18. The aim is to give as many children as possible, who attend the weekly tennis coaching sessions, the opportunity to put their coaching into practice by playing both singles and doubles matches against other children from the club who are of a similar standard. One photo shows children who took part in a “normal” Team Tennis event and the other one shows some of the children who took part in the Halloween Team Tennis Event.

Over 1500 people attended the Hi5 Kibworth Fireworks Spectacular. There was hot food and drinks supplied by the Scouts in Kibworth and stalls representing Fleckney Scouts, as well as the Harborough District World Scout Jamboree. Coffee was provided by 'Penny's Vintage Coffee.'

MHO, Market Harborough’s very own orchestra, is preparing to give its 24th concert under the baton of Stephen Bell on Saturday 12November at 7.30pm at Market Harborough Methodist Church, Northampton Road.

At our October meeting, members and visitors were treated to a demonstration by mixed-media professional artist, Danielle Vaughan. Danielle talked about and demonstrated her own unique style of collage art. These are created using waste materials, mainly ripped paper from magazines.

On 13 October our mouths watered in anticipation of Gail Wooliscroft’s demonstration of ‘Decadent Dessert’. The first was Waffle Berry Pudding, with waffles purchased at the supermarket bakery section, because frozen ones are usually made with potato, not good combined with fruit, custard and cream!

Yes.I remember Adlestrop -
The name, because one afternoon
Of heat the express train drew up there
Unwontedly. It was late June.
The steam hissed. Someone cleared his throat.
No one left and no one came
On the bare platform. What I saw
Was Adlestrop - only the name
And willows, willow herb, and grass,
And meadowsweet and haycocks dry,
No whit less still and lonely fair
Than the high cloudlets in the sky.
And for that minute a blackbird sang
Close by, and round him, mistier,
Farther and Farther, all the birds
Of Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire.

Following months of hard work, planning, preparation and rehearsals, Saturday 29 October was certainly a night to remember. Supported by their wonderful family and friends, Kibworth Ladies Choir sang their hearts out whilst telling the story of how the choir has evolved over the past ten years.

After Remembrance Sunday when members of the Band will be present for the parade, short service and Act of Remembrance, our thoughts will be on the LBBA Contest and, dare I say it, Christmas.
