Olivers Battery

Winchester

	Olivers Battery meets for eleven meetings a year, monthly except August, when there is usually an outing or visit.
	Meetings are in St Marks Church, starting at 7.30 for 7.45 on the third Tuesday evening.
	As part of the Winchester Group of WIs, the membership of this WI also enables you to attend two group meetings a year, with members from the eleven WIs in the Group.
	As a member, you also have the opportunity to enjoy the many events organised by the Hampshire Federation.
	We continue to walk and lunch, enjoying some beautiful countryside. This takes place on a Saturday to suit all, especially those who work, but sometimes in the evening in the summer.
	If this sort of thing appeals to you, along with a craft group, walking group and occasional outings, not to mention excellent speakers, then why not give us a try. You will be made most welcome.
