After 15 years of meeting at John Stretton Memorial Hall, the group now has to find a new venue, by September.

After Marian Fox had read a letter from Kidderminster Scouts regarding the hire of the hall, Edna Plimley-Rodriguez finalised plans for the federation luncheon to be held at The Mill Hotel.

Mrs B Charnock gave a talk entitled Whatever Happened to Retirement?, then judged the competition for a pretty bookmarker.

At the June 12 meeting Audrey Spells will give a talk about her cruise to the Midnight Sun. The competition will be for a flower from the garden. Visitors will be welcome.
