Stubbington Village WI

About our WI

	We meet at 7:45pm on the 2nd Thursday of each month (except August), in the Holy Rood Church Hall in Gosport Road, Stubbington.
	Ours is a fairly small group (42 members),about a dozen of whom are founder members from 1983! A friendly bunch, we welcome visitors and new members, and have an interesting and varied programme each year.
	Most months we have a competition relating to our speaker’s subject – and a regular ‘Flower of the Month’ competition too.
	Our main fundraiser is a stall at the annual Stubbington Fayre on August Bank Holiday Monday – we are already busy making things for that.
	We try to cater for the time between meetings, with get-togethers to make (or share expertise on) a range of crafts – from making marzipan cake decorations to sewing Advent calendars or greeting card making. In short - any excuse for a coffee and chat !
	For the more energetic there is the monthly ‘Kates’ Walk’ (weather permitting) led by a member with seeming encyclopaedic knowledge of the most 'off the beaten track' walks in the area.
	We belong to the Haven Group of WIs, and take part in the Skittles tournament and General Knowledge Quiz. (No, we don’t usually win – but it’s fun taking part!).
