SEAMER JUMBLE SALE

SEAMER JUMBLE SALE

The Jumble Sale held on Saturday was a great success raising £438.36p so far, for the Village Hall funds.

There was a long queue of people waiting for the doors to open at 2pm and the hall was soon packed out with everyone wanting a bargain. Maybe this was due to Jo being on Radio Tees just after 9am promoting it.

The hall was full of items to sell from clothes, footwear, jewellery, books, toys, electrical goods, furniture, household goods and bric-a-brac to plants.

Afterwards people could reflect on their purchases over a cuppa with home made cakes and biscuits.

Thank you to everyone who donated their unwanted goods, to all the helpers and to those of you that came to buy, for making this annual event such a success.

Burn’s Night celebration

As a new venture, the village hall held it’s first Burn’s Night celebration on January 25th, with 51 villagers and friends enjoying a wonderful evening. Many came dressed for the occasion sporting all forms of tartan.

The evening commenced with Glen McGill welcoming everyone. A three course meal was then served with the haggis piped in by a Scottish piper. The piper and his wife then led the entertainment and had many up dancing a traditional reel.

Carol service & Carol Singing

Carol service & Carol Singing

The annual carol singing around Seamer and Newby on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, December 21st-23rd, raised £586 for Seamer Methodist Church.

There was a good turnout with some new choristers joining in who seemed to enjoy themselves. For once the weather was kind to us and we enjoyed the refreshments on route and afterwards.

A big thank you to everyone for helping to raise such a large sum of money.
