The Village Hall Grand Re-opening After a “face-lift”, Cridling Stubbs Village Hall was officially
re-opened on Saturday, 2nd November by Mr & Mrs Hallam.
Mr Hallam said a few words commending the work done and Mrs Hallam
cut the ribbon allowing the visitors to view the transformation.
Free refreshments were served and entertainment was provided by the talented young musician James Bottomley. Everyone seemed to admire the new décor and have a good time. A raffle was held with lots of high calorie prizes. In total, £60 was raised for Village Hall funds.
Anyone wishing to hire the Hall should contact Julie Bottomley, telephone 675730. Hire charges are a very reasonable £6 per hour, which covers the cost of all facilities. The use of a microwave can be arranged.
A traditional Christmas party is to be held for primary and pre-school
children on Saturday 14th December from 3-5pm.
Invitations are on their way. Dog
Exercising Please
note that the Village Hall Grounds are not suitable for the exercising of
dogs. The grounds will need
cleaning before they can be used for children’s activities. Cridling
Stubbs Village Hall Library The
Village Hall Library has now opened on a weekly basis on Wednesday
afternoons at 3.30pm for primary and pre-school children of the village.
Membership forms are available from the Hall on Library Day. A
varied selection of both books and toys are available to borrow.
Refreshments will be on sale at the same time for older residents
who want to call in for a chat and a cuppa.
In the very near future, the library will also be open to adults
(obviously with a different set of books to the children).

be gratefully received. Darrington
