Weekly Bulletin Issue 110. July 10th 2014
Summer Newsletter – it’s on the way or see it now! For those who still look forward to seeing the Spice Programme in print, the latest 112 page Spice Newsletter is with our printers and will be landing on door mats towards the end of next week. But if you can’t wait until then, you can see the Summer Newsletter on our website HERE We automatically send the printed newsletter to all members except those who have chosen to go “paper free”. If you find you do not read your Spice Newsletter anymore and don’t have a nearby waiting room to leave it in – then just let us know and we will take you off the mailing list.

Let’s Race the Dragon! Yes, it’s an exciting weekend ahead with our annual National Dragon Boating in Pershore. We have 190 members taking part in the racing plus hundreds more who come along just to spectate and enjoy that unique carnival atmosphere that you only get at these huge national get togethers. We also have lots of members camping over at Piddle Park (yes really!) which is home to Pershore Rugby Club and we have a party on Saturday Night as well. There will also be a team of Spice Coordinators (me included) taking part this year, so don’t miss that – we could set a new record (the slowest!) Dragon Boat racing always brings out that special Spice spirit of fun and friendship combined with a bit of a challenge and light hearted rivalry. We do hope you can pop down on Sunday and say hello. It really wouldn’t be the same without you! As ever, this Bulletin is designed to give you a quick overview of what is happening this week in Spice. “Anything in blue - should click through”.
