WELTON AND DISTRICT CRAFT CLASS
As we have not featured in your magazine before and for those who don't know about us, let me introduce us.
We are a small group of people of both sexes and of various ages and capabilities who meet on a Monday at Welton Village Hall. Although partly funded by Social Services through Disability Lincs,we are mainly self funding and hold various fundraising functions.
Our first event this year is our usual Easter Coffee Morning to be held on Saturday March 13th from 9 till 11 30 at the Methodist Chapel in Welton. Easter Eggs and Easter Gifts will be on sale as well as a raffle and tombola stall.
We are currently looking for a person to help run our group. This is a voluntary position but any expenses incurred will be paid. No knowledge of craft work is necessary although helpful but should be available every (or most) Mondays from 9am-2pm. The post involves some administration relating to the group, some help with fund raising and general existence in running the group. Anyone interested or for further information please contact 01673 863461 or come and see us at Welton Village Hall we are there most Mondays and you will be most welcome.

Welton Gardening Club
I can hardly believe that this month will be the last of our speakers for this season. Where does the time go? This winter has been a real test for many of our plants so it will be interesting to see which have survived and how any replacements are needed. We welcome back for this month Mr Stuart Dixon BA (hons), a horticultural lecturer, writer and broadcaster, to present a talk 'Dreaming Spires' - Delphiniums, Ermurus, Hollyhocks and more! Everyone welcome, with visitors only £1.50. I look forward to seeing you there - Welton Village Hall on Monday 22nd March at 7.30pm
