Silver Band We are currently desparately seeking a new musical director. The band was formed almost 100 years ago and is believed to be the only surviving village band in Devon, but we need someone at the helm - if you know of anybody who may be interested please contact us. We currently have about 20 members and new recruits are always welcome. We practice every Wednesday at 7.30 in the bandroom that is situated in the yard behind the village hall. We play a wide range of music varying from classic marches and hymns through to modern chart music made popular by artists such as Robbie Williams, Atomic Kitten and the Pet Shops Boys. Anyone interested in joining the band is welcome to come along to a practice. For more information contact Martin Perry, Chairman on 01409 221376. |
| Friends
of St. Thomas’ Church While many people are happy to make a contribution to Church funds, not many realize that those funds are forwarded to the diocese in general. Anyone who would like to contribute specifically to the upkeep and preservation of our own Parish Church could consider joining the Friends of St. Thomas’ Church (registered charity no. 1070123). You can become a member by making an annual subscription of £5.00 or more and, if you are a tax-payer, we can reclaim the tax paid. For further information, contact the secretary, Roger Atkinson (01409 221779) or the treasurer, Ron Oldale (01409 221106). |

Football Club At the start of the season we weren’t sure whether the team could survive. Then Bevill Smithers came to the rescue and took over as manager. With some more players our team spirit returned but, in spite of winning the last five games out of six, we were relegated on goal difference. However with the same manager and players for the next season things are looking much better. |
| The
Snooker Club Snooker has been played in the room at the side of the Victory Hall since the mid 1920s. Teams have played in the Okehampton and Bude leagues, winning on many occasions in both league and knockout competitions. Today we are struggling to maintain one team of five players in the Bude League. It would be a great pity if the Snooker Club folded up so we are looking for new members. All would be welcome. Parents with children or older people who might be interested in playing snooker or helping to maintain the club are asked to contact Michael Cole (01409 221621) or John Spry (01409 221366). |
