Welcome to the July issue of Crowle and Ealand Arrow What a fabulous Queen’s Platinum Jubilee, full of celebrations and joy! I enjoyed a couple of days in London but after attempting to set foot on The Mall with no joy, I abandoned the celebration and headed off to Paddington, a much quieter place on the day. I must admit it was much easier to see the celebrations sat on your sofa from home! The whole weekend was full of music, colour and adventure and the Queen meeting Paddington Bear, in a sketch which opened the BBC's Party at the Palace was the icing on the cake. Tapping to the beat with her spoon on her tea cup, the Queen introduced 'Queen' the famous rock band along with singer Adam Lambert who performed the song We Will Rock You. For me this topped her skit with James Bond to open the 2012 Olympics in London! I hope you all had a fabulous long weekend! Any local news or events please keep in touch for the next issue of the Arrow.

Isle Community News Following two fairly quiet years due to the pandemic Epworth Bowls Club has now seen an influx of new members. There are teams regularly competing in four local leagues together with popular Sunday roll ups and regular social events. The Club has now received some much appreciated sponsorship from local firm Dale Murten Wealth Management of Fountain Court, Epworth, and the teams look very smart in their new shirts which carry the company logo. Anyone interested in trying out bowling as an activity is welcome at the Club's Battle Green home on a Sunday afternoon at 1pm. Bowls will be available to use but flat soled shoes will be needed on the green. Please contact Roger on 07779525105 or Liz on 07503066055.

Wing Walk for Charity cancelled and new date announced!! Mother & daughter wing walking for Lindsey Lodge Hospice because The charity is close to their families hearts. Please sponsor Pam Smith (Simm), now 60 and Jayde Victoria as they take to the skies for Lindsey Lodge Hospice and Healthcare. 24th July 2022 Wickenby Aerodrome, Lincoln Target is £1500 and of 10 June donations reached £1113. Please support this worthy cause!
https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/pam-jayde-wing-walk The residents of Eastoft, a village on the border of North Lincolnshire and the East Riding of Yorkshire came together to decorate the village in celebration of Her Royal Majesty's Platinum Jubilee. Every lamppost had been decorated with crocheted and knitted decorations with the materials funded by a grant from local energy generator SSE Renewables. Local children made Pom-Poms which were added to the decorations.
Remaining funds from the grant contributed to the purchase of hundreds of feet of red, white and blue bunting, much of it homemade. Local farmers loaned equipment to assist in fixing bunting at high level. Another SSE Renewables grant funded the purchase of plants and containers which the local gardening club made into over a hundred Platinum Jubilee Planters. The planters containing red, white & blue blooms have been given to households in the village as a lasting reminder of this momentous occasion. Local residents also added to the display with bunting and flags adorning almost every home in the village. The village also held a Royal Jubilee themed scarecrow competition with amazing entries including Royal Majesties, Queen Elizabeth the Second and Prince Charles. There is even a Royal Corgi Scarecrow and a Freddie Mercury scarecrow. The fantastic staff and students of Eastoft Church of England Primary and Luddington & Garthorpe Primary schools had been busy producing portraits of Her Majesty which are now on display inside St. Bartholomew's Church, Eastoft. The church itself was specially commissioned a lighting system so that each evening and morning the church was lit up in red, white and blue. Jubilee festivities continued throughout the weekend with a barbeque on the village green held on the Saturday evening. There was a community picnic with Jubilee activities on the Sunday in the community garden space. Another villager made a Teddy Bears Picnic display to enhance the occasion. Eastoft was immensely proud to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee and hoped to reflect Her Majesty's commitment to service and unity with residents of all ages coming together after two years of restrictions that have negatively affected many regular village activities. Eastoft was awarded the status of Thriving by Britain in Bloom with the RHS in 2021. Ian Bishop – Churchwarden of St. Bartholomew's Church, Eastoft

MEN IN SHEDS
Are you interested in setting up or joining a shed in the Isle of Axholme? The Community Network on the Isle of Axholme has identified a range of issues in the community which they are hoping to tackle on behalf of residents. Isolation and loneliness are two of the issues identified. Men in Sheds is one possible way of tackling these issues. To explore if there is community interest on the Isle, in this initiative, we are holding a drop-in session on the 6 July 22 at the Crowle Community Hub (library), Market Place, Crowle, DN17 4LA 10am to 12 noon, & a presentation event at the Haxey Memorial Hall, High Street, Haxey, DN9 2HN on the 11 July 22 at 10am to 12 noon. If you would like to find out more about Men in Sheds, please come along to these informal events or contact us prior to the event .
About Men’s Sheds
Men’s sheds are community spaces for men and women to connect, converse and create. The activities are often like those of garden sheds, but for groups of men to enjoy together. They help reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, they are fun! The idea behind the Men’s Sheds movement is that men are more likely to thrive in informal spaces, in the company of their peers and through engaging in practical activities such as sharing, plus learning skills and helping the community. At a Shed, you can take part in practical group activities such as woodworking and gardening, sharing, and learning new skills and supporting other "shedders" by working with them shoulder to shoulder. With the funding support from the National Lottery, Humber & Wolds Rural Action (HWRA) can provide set up support to help the community establish a Men’s Shed on the Isle. To find out more about setting up or joining a Men in Sheds in your area or for further information contact Carole Johnson Email: carole.johnson@hwrcc.org.uk Tel: 01652 637700 https://www.meninshedshumber.co.uk/ HWRA is funded by the Lottery Community Fund to facilitate the development of Men’s Sheds in Northern Lincolnshire.

An Act of Murder Crowle Entertainers are staging their first production since January 2020. It is called “An Act of Murder” and it promises to be a great night out! A struggling theatre company are performing a murder mystery play when matters take a strange turn and a real murder takes place in their midst. Come along and see if you can solve the murder and guess who dunnit in our comedy murder mystery performance. The performance will take place at the Crowle Community Hall on Saturday 9th July at 7.30pm. Tickets priced £5 are available from Crowle Regen Shop, Crowle Tesco or by calling 07966 315733 or on the door. Cabaret style seating – bring your own refreshments. Director Gillian Vickers said “It has been far too long since our group has been able to perform in front of an audience – both our January 21 and January 22 pantomimes were unable to go ahead due to Covid. We kept the group going online by producing a radio play and two films which were all put together remotely online during lockdown. We also did lots of online play readings via Zoom in order to keep the group together, but there is nothing like performing in front of a live audience, so we are hoping that local people will come out and support our group and have a fun night out into the bargain.” To advertise please call 01302 532676 or 07912 643010

Isle Choral Singers Summer Concert By the time you are reading this isle choral singers will have appeared at the Epworth Music Day under the management of the new musical director. Since the resignation of Robert Fields, the previous music director, the accompanist, a talented musician, Maurice Davis has been acting music director as well. However, there is now a newly appointed music director in the person of Robert Steadman, whom we have to offer congratulations on his recent marriage, thus allowing Maurice to revert to his role as accompanist, which he fulfils admirably. After the Spring concert which was well attended and received, the choir immediately began rehearsing for the summer concert, which has a different flavour, being lighter and less formal with songs from shows and films, such as Les Miserables and Sound of Music. There will also be a guest appearance by organist Nicholas Haines, who is a talented musician and who has previously arranged music that the choir has performed. The concert will be held in St Nicholas Church in Haxey, at 7pm on Saturday 9th July with entry being £7 per adult payable at the door. Students are £4 each and accompanied children (under 16) will be admitted free of charge. There will also be a rafffle and light refreshments on the day. The choir still needs more new members, although we have 2 new gentlemen members since the spring concert, we still do need more, and ladies too. In the light of this the choir invites interested people, young or older - age is immaterial - who enjoy singing and may be interested, to join them on Monday July 11th in the Imperial Hall Epworth from 7pm to meet the choir, have a cup of tea or coffee and maybe a biscuit or two and try joining in with a song or two as well. The choir is one of the longest in existence in the Isle having been formed 35 years ago, and is a registered charity. And needless to say, friendly and welcoming. Remember, singing is good for the soul, and your mental wellbeing. Go along on the 11th and try it out. Cath Fordham
