Treasurer’s Report:  This was distributed and read at the Meeting. Report attached. The main points are that the Hall is now self financed by the events with an 86% rental increase and £780 profit.

The Jubilee income will be used for four gazebos and some tables.

Bonfire and Fireworks Success

Dear All

Thank you and congratulations to all those who helped and attended that Annual Warmington Bonfire and Fireworks Night.  The night was a tremendous success with over £1,400 pounds raised from donations and burgers, hot dogs and drinks sold.  Everything was sold out so next year we will look to make more mulled wine and prepare more burgers and hot dogs.

A huge thank you to the North Banbury Scout Group who again, safely, put on our fireworks display.

Quiz Night Success

The fish and chips quiz night was once again a huge success with nearly £240 raised for the village hall and over £140 raised for the church wall fund.  Thank you to everyone involved in another very enjoyable evening in the hall.

Congratulations to Mark, Nick, Tim and Nick who won the quiz trophy.

Fete Success - 1st September, 2013

Dear All


It seems amazing that just over a week ago we were enjoying the annual fete and the sunshine. I would like to thank you for all your help in making the event such a huge success.

I am delighted to tell you that we have again made a record amount, even beating last year’s great outcome. We believe we have made around £3,400 this year but the final figure, together with each stall’s figures and some more pictures, will soon be posted on the village notice board and on the web site: - htt://warmingtonOX17.blogspot.co.uk

As well as good weather the fete is only made possible by those villagers that help in some way, through helping with the set up, organising activities, manning the stands and of course clearing away at the end of the day. It is a long and tiring day but we hope that you enjoyed being part of the activities as everyone's individ-ual contribution is so valuable.

The Village Hall Committee wishes to thank all those that played a part in making 2013 such a success. Your contribution is really greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Kind regards

Kate

Dear Villagers

Dear Villagers

I wanted to add this short message to the licence notice to update you on some Village Hall matters. 

At the end of August Georgina Bullworthy and her family are moving to Singapore. This exciting opportunity for the Bullworthy family is a great loss for the village as George has put a huge amount of energy into village events during her short time here.  Our thanks to George.  Audrey Coates (Cambray House) is to take over as Treasurer and bookings will be done by Brenda (tel 690337).  However we are now looking for someone else to join the village hall committee to help steer hall affairs and organise events.  We are also looking for a Secretary (elected or otherwise).  We meet on the second Wednesday of every month and aim for meetings to take no longer than an hour.

The committee has worked particularly hard in putting on new events and activities, such as Pilates, Zumba, and a playgroup. These have been put on at villagers' requests, but disappointingly are folding due to lack of participation.  Please do consider using these great resources in the village rather than going elsewhere.

If you have an idea for events or activities you would like to see in the hall, please do let us know.  Our new website will show you free dates and will also help to publicise events: http://www.warmingtonOX17.blogspot.co.uk/.

Finally, Fete preparations are in full swing - please contact us to let us know how you can help. Thank you.

Have a good summer.

Simon, Village Hall Committee Chairman
