Hello everyone,
We hope you're keeping well! There's lots happening at the Village Hub this month—from activities and events to volunteer opportunities. Whether you're joining a group, popping in for a cuppa, or just saying hello, we’d love to see you around.
A quick reminder: Please put your cups and glasses into the dishwasher after use. It helps keep the Hub tidy and welcoming for everyone. Thanks so much – we really appreciate it!
Changes to Mackie Street Singers
There have been a few changes to how the Mackie Street Singers run.
Starting this week, the group will now meet on Mondays at 6:30 PM, led by David. This new format will bring a more structured approach, with community performances planned at the end of each quarter – a wonderful opportunity to come together and share the music with others.
Tuesday sessions are currently on hold as we look for a new musical director. We’ll keep you updated on any developments.
Thank you for your ongoing support—we’re looking forward to this next chapter.
