All Saints’ Church will, as usual, be providing the refreshments on May Day (Monday 1st May), and they say:- This year we will be in the Methodist Church Schoolroom, and we are very grateful to the Methodist Church for providing this facility.
Donations of cakes and/or savouries for our refreshment stall would be very much appreciated, these can be left in the Schoolroom from 9.00 a.m. on the day or at Porch House, The Green in advance.
Tombola prizes would also be gratefully received – these can be left in advance with Cynthia Fell at Slingsby Hall Lodge, or with Norma Bulmer at Dunelm, The Balk.
All our fund raising efforts in this and future years will contribute to the cost of replacing the lead stolen from the Church roof in September 2016.
Slingsby resident Neil Marshall came over the village today in a hot air balloon, and has kindly allowed us to publish photos he took. Perhaps the first aerial photos of Cavendish Court? Our thanks to Neil. He did not ask to be credited, but it seems only fair. Click on an image for a bigger version.
