After the Autumn Marathon and Half Marathon season we’ve had a much quieter month for races and events. It’s now time for the mud lovers to get involved with the Derby Runner Cross Country League underway.

Attention please!

We were pleased to be able to hold our AGM in person once again this year at our November meeting.

At Kibworth Creatives Choir we have been busy practising for our very first public performance at the Kibworth Late Night Shopping event. What a terrific turnout!

It was such a momentous occasion when Illston on the Hill WI met in October for the very first proper WI meeting this year. We decided to keep it low key. So we enjoyed a very sociable evening with a ‘when we were young’ quiz. We all took a photograph of ourselves as a child. I wonder if there was a reason for all the photographs being black and white! One or two of our ladies didn’t seem to have changed much, but as I only got 3 correct (one being myself,) I think we can confirm most of us had altered – for the better of course. We also had a sales table and items were bought and sold at very minimal prices. 

Firstly, Kibworth Station would like to thank everyone who donated to our recent charity event challenge to climb to the summit of Mount Snowdon in fire kit. The current total is a huge £3718. The challenge was taken to raise money for local charity The Well, along with The Firefighters Charity both of which do amazing work.

It’s been another busy month for our club members. We have had a number of impressive performances over the Half and Full Marathon distance.

Kibworth Creatives Choir are now well under way with our rehearsals for our upcoming debut performance in December (details to be confirmed in the next issue!) and are very excited to announce that we will be merging the Crochet and Quavers choir into one big mega choir for all children and teens aged 8-16!

Why not join the happy bunch of people that make up the Oadby Hillwalking Club on one of our many walks? A great way to keep fit, see beautiful countryside and make new friends. Our Club attracts all ages, whether studying, working or retired.
