Scouts geared up with new minibus Freemasons from Thornton and Cleveleys Lodge got into top gear when they heard that a local scout group who are near neighbours to their West Drive, Cleveleys, base, needed a bit of extra assistance to raise funds for a much needed minibus. The Masons were so impressed when they heard from lodge member Paul Joyce, who is also the treasurer of 2nd Cleveleys St Andrews Scout Group; about all the activities the scouts had got involved in to raise cash for the minibus that they sent off an appeal to their West Lancashire Charity fund. As a result a cheque for £2,600 arrived to make up the shortfall from the scout’s target figure of £10,000 for their minibus. As an added bonus another lodge member Darren Shillito, boss at Karl Smith Car Sales, apart from giving another £250 to the scouts fund, sourced the minibus, had it sign written with the scouts St Andrews crest and will see to it that the minibus gets its annual servicing done as part of the package.
The Masons heard that St Andrews scouts had raised £7,400 in an amazing number of ways some of them quite unique. Topping the list must be a parachute jump done by St Andrews secretary Janine Webster who is blind but managed to raise £1,378.10 (!) for the scouts. Her son is a beaver scout in the group. Janine McNeil who is a mother to a scout and a young leader ran in the London Marathon and raised £180 for her efforts. There were also all manner of race nights and beetle drives and Bob-a-Job and magic shows, Christmas fairs and bag packing to swell the funds. Wyre Youth Council donated £1,000 and Julia Culshaw, manager of Tesco Cleveleys whose store is another near neighbour of the scouts donated £500 from Tesco Community Projects. At the handover of the minibus Group Scout leader, Don Ashworth, told Terry Hudson, Freemasons’ Assistant Provincial Grand Master how delighted he was that the culmination of all the efforts of fund raising had at last come to pass and he thanked everyone who had taken part for their contributions and unstinting hard work.

THORNTON LADIES CLUB DECEMBER 2010: November’s fun evening with a twist; ‘CSI Thornton’ was a wonderful opportunity for the ladies to bring along an unusual object for us to guess its use, we had great fun and no one brought along their husband (apologies men but it was too good an opportunity to miss). The night out at Sands for the Queen tribute was brilliant and we had great fun (age of dancers and diners between 30 and 70!) Wednesday 15th December will be our Christmas party – food, company and entertainment all ladies are welcome, the food list is already making progress and anyone who wants to attend can contact me via email or phone to book their place and their food offering. We will be also having a ‘secret santa’ sack; ladies to spend no more than £5 on a gift for a lady, to be placed in a sack and drawn on the night. Location of meetings: St John’s Church Hall, Stanah from 7.30pm Entrance £2.00. For more information tel: 01253 476663 or email: lesley.slack@btinternet.com

T.C.F.C Points Deduction Setback Does Little to Dampen TCFC Spirits John Mendonca has long been an admirer of the beautiful game and his attention to detail has proved a winning success. TCFC’s manager has guided the club to two successive promotions and if it was not for an administration error they would be sitting 3rd in the table of the premier division their highest ever league position. In deciding to dock TCFC 4 points the leagues committee arguably could have looked at the circumstances a little closer. TCFC’s kev Langton had been dismissed in a competition unrelated to playing football for TCFC but the governing authorities apply sanctions across all competitions and herein lays the problem. In suspending a player who is or has been registered with another club or competition the Lancashire FA are not obliged to inform the club the club the player is signed to only the contact/secretary of the competition. Disappointed was the reaction from John Mendonca “I’m not blaming the league or the authorities they have their job to do but something like this was out of our control and as a result we end up being punished.” Nevertheless Mendonca can be pleased with the start TCFC have made in the top flight winning 6 and drawing 4 games from their opening fixtures more pleasing are the crowds recognising good football being played over 100 swelled the terraces at a recent home game against Eagerly. Thornton Cleveleys FC are moving in the right direction said Chairman Steve Abbott our plans for the future are robust we have an excellent senior squad combined with a very strong Junior section which will ensure the club has a strong footing in our community. TCFC’s new sports bar is also proving popular amongst the community and its members recent Blackpool FC games have attracted large numbers which added to an excellent atmosphere T.C.F.C JUNIORSFOOTBALL CLUB Exiting times are ahead for the best run junior football club in Wyre. Our state of the art facilities are crying out for more teams to be developed Our training facilities are second to none we provide private grounds and private physio to all our players we have our very own clubhouse open 7 days a week we have the infrastructure and personnel to help teams succeed so we are looking for more coaches with any level of experience Our 5 year Development plan is looking to Start New teams Introduce over 200 children of all abilities and gender into football Qualify 20 new Coaches Extend uor existing grounds to create more playing areas Develop an exciting environment to play Junior football
