Editor’s Letter...

Sincere apologies to anyone who

missed the opportunity to have

their bin emptied due to the

notice in last month’s Arrow. The

Arrow had already gone to print

when the strike was called off!

Lesson Learned!

With only eight weeks till Christmas, everything is

in full throttle once more, this month’s Arrow has

lots of local fayres in November and December so

be sure to check them out, they are always good

to visit and you can pick up some great stocking

fillers! The local village pubs are all offering

Christmas fayre menus throughout December so

you wont be stuck for a festive treat!

All this talk about Christmas and we still have

November to get through! With the half term

holiday eating into November, Christmas can feel a

long way off! Warmsworth Gala Committee have

organised a Halloween Lantern walk on Thursday

1st November from Warmsworth Community

Centre, details inside this month’s issue.

The deadline for the December issue for

advertising and articles is Wednesday 14th

November. The December Arrow will be

delivered from Friday 23rd November.

Best Wishes

St Mary’s Sprotbrough Annual

Christmas Fayre

Preparations are underway for St Mary’s Annual

Christmas Fayre to be held at the Church Hall,

Main Street, Sprotbrough on Saturday 24th November between 10 am and 3pm.

We put a call though to Toyland and managed a

quick word with busy Santa asking him about his

special visit to Sprotbrough. He told us that he

always loves coming to Sprotbrough and is

working hard getting sacks of presents ready.

This year he has a new gadget: Santa Nav! “It’s

like the ones in your cars but speaks Reindeer

of course!” said Santa. He explained that he’s

been persuaded to use modern technology to

help keep up with all the new places to visit this

Christmas.

As usual, there will be a different Grotto for

Santa and you this year. How they dream up the

wonderful ideas each year is amazing! There’ll

be games to play and Tombola to try your luck

on, stalls of Christmas treats, gifts, cakes, toys,

books, CD’s DVD’s and, of course the superb

Hampers Raffle! Lunches and tasty snacks will be

on sale too, so why not come and join in the

festive fun?

See you there!

Another Season is over and it is one we will want to put behind us very

quickly for a number of reasons. It has been the worst season during

the History of the club for games lost due to the weather, and also the

worst season in history for results, with only a handful of wins recorded

between all the teams. The club now finds itself in Divisions 3 & 4 of the

South Yorkshire league for Season 2013.

You may think that Cricket stops over the winter, but that is not the case, the Club

competes in the All Saints Indoor Cricket League played at Rossington on Sunday

Evenings, the competition is six aside with the League winners going on to compete in the

regional and possibly the National Finals.

Planning is already underway for 2013; we have entered a team in the Doncaster Infirmary

Evening League and are actively recruiting players at all levels for the club. Anyone who

may be interested in joining the club, please get in contact using the details below.

The Indoor Nets will be starting during February 2013 and will once again be based in the

Sports Hall at Sir Thomas Wharton College, Edlington. I will advise dates and times at a

later date.

The bid for funding for the new roof has been submitted and we are currently awaiting the

news as to whether our bid has been successful.
