GRAFFOE LINK ‘THANK YOU’ TEA PARTY

To show our appreciation to all the people involved in the printing and distribution of the Graffoe Link magazine, which reaches every house in our parish, we are holding a ‘Thank you’ Tea Party on Saturday 21st June

This will take place in the Methodist Church Hall in Navenby from 2-4 pm. It will be an opportunity for all those currently and previously involved in any way in the production and distribution of the Graffoe Link to meet up with each other
and spend an enjoyable couple of hours socialising over tea/coffee and cake.

All those currently involved should have received their own personal invitation, but we should also like to include all those who have been involved in the past, but, for whatever reason, are no longer able to do it. We do hope that as many of you as possible will be able to join us.

For catering purposes, it would be appreciated if you could inform Beth Devonald, [email protected], or 01522 810030, if you hope to come.
