Kibworth Scout Group are thrilled to announce our plans for a brand-new, modern, purpose-built Scout building on our land by the railway.

New Kibworth resident Richard Hill used to run a history group in Warwick. He gave a fascinating talk about Zulu and the Battle of Rorke’s Drift this month.  Let’s hope it’s the first of many.

Tom Ingall will be talking about his involvement in ‘The Great Central Railway’ on Tuesday 17 February.

Snow was forecast on 8 January, our meeting night. With none falling by 6.30pm our intrepid president, Teresa, set out from Oadby. Other members, braving the cold, began to arrive, just 16 in all. We shelved the business part of the meeting and settled down for the talk.

At our first ‘Kibworth & District Heritage Society’ meeting of the year, chairman John Freeland shared some fascinating stories and photographs about his great-granduncle, Alonzo Freeland. Alonzo was one of three well-known Victorian photographers in the village, and the photos of Kibworth from the past were particularly captivating.

Time never stands still for long with MSTC. Fresh from our successful production of Rhyme and Treason, we are well into rehearsals for our next production, Holiday Snap, by Michael Pertwee and John Chapman. A traditional farce that the British do so well that will certainly provide our audiences with plenty of laughs.

A crisp winter sunrise (Picture below taken by one of our volunteers) at Kibworth Golf Club has a way of stopping you in your tracks. As the first light breaks over the course, the trees stand bare, their dark branches etched against the colour, while the fairways lie quiet at daybreak.
