About our WI

Houghton WI
 |
Welcome to our web-page! |
|
We are a friendly and active group and we meet on the third Monday of each month (except August) in Houghton Village Hall at 7.30pm. Visitors are always made very welcome. |
|
We take part in the County skittles and darts competitions and Quiz, and we also have outings to theatres, gardens or other places of interest to our members. Outings in 2012 will include a visit to the Otterbourne Pantomime in January, a tour of Bletchley Park in May, and a visit to Houghton's Old Rectory garden in June. |
|
We run a Lunch Club and Book Club which both meet monthly - the first to sample local eating-places and the second to provide an informal forum for discussing a wide variety of books, suggested by the members. |
