Foxton Community Choir would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who supported our ‘Summer Dreamin'’ concert in June, on one of the hottest nights of the year. It was an evening of great music, love and laughter, with the choir performing a range of toe-tapping tunes alongside traditional choral pieces. The choir is now gearing up for another busy year, starting in September when we begin preparing for our Christmas concert which will take place on Friday 12 December.

The Rotary Club of Kibworth & Fleckney has agreed to support the recently formed Ukrainian Rotary Impact Club of Rutland. Their inaugural project has been launched in support of those in need of medical equipment in Ukraine. The club was founded by a group of fifteen very enthusiastic and inspiring people fleeing war, all with different backgrounds and from different cities in Ukraine.

At Kibworth Golf Club this summer has been an outstanding one for our Juniors. Noah Williams (U15) and Evan Fowler (U12) travelled to Northern Ireland to take part in the prestigious Champion of Champions Junior World Championships! With 250 juniors from 49 countries competing, it’s an incredible achievement just to qualify. Both boys secured their spots through the Robert Rock Junior Tour. Noah finished 1st and Evan 2nd in their age categories last season. Over three 18-hole rounds, Noah produced an excellent performance to finish 9th out of 40 competitors. While Evan secured a strong 30th place out of 60.

Over the long warm summer there have been plenty of art exhibitions and Open Studios in the region to keep Kibworth Art Lovers inspired and looking forward to the start of our new season.

Our group continues to meet every third Wednesday of the each month, at Kibworth Cricket Club, from 7.30pm. We have had some lovely sessions over the last few months, from education on nutrition to bringing out our competitive side in table top skittles. Last month we held an ‘evening tea’ and raffle. We had some wonderful cakes and prizes, all kindly donated by members and businesses in the community. The money from the evening was a marvellous £345 which is on its way to LOROS hospice.
