We have a thriving junior section here at KGC with two boys doing exceptionally well in recent tournaments.

News of the Band has been missing for the last couple of months mainly because Covid is still affecting our membership and activities. After the long enforced cessation of playing some players have not returned but we are pleased to say that we have attracted some new young players and are hopeful that things will gradually improve

Kibworth and surrounding area Photography Group is now a well-established club. We have been going strong for the last 18 months now and have enjoyed lots of varied meetings.

The summer season is now under way and our South Leicestershire Triples’ League and Market Harborough League fixtures have commenced.

Do you remember the game show Bob’s Full House hosted by Bob Monkhouse? This was the first game show in which Stephanie appeared.

On a fine Saturday in April forty-three members of the Kibworth Rambling Group headed to Kendal, Cumbria for our annual coach holiday.

In our April meeting, the Kibworth Art Lovers were treated to a new look at painting with pastels. Nuneaton based artist, Estelle Robinson, has 30 years of experience in painting portraits and she presented pastels as a forgiving and versatile medium.  She says, “With portraiture it’s all in the eyes of course, get those right then everything else seems to follow.”

In April we welcomed Carolyn Boulter who showed us how to make an owl paperweight. Being well-organised, Carolyn brought along some owls she had made earlier. She had also prepared about 50 kits containing everything we needed, right down to a needle ready-threaded with cotton to match the fabric in each kit. It must have taken her ages! Members selected the kit they liked according to their colour preference.

Our Plant and Seed Sale will be on Saturday 21 May, 10am - 12noon
