We held our annual presentation evening on Saturday 19 October at the Crown Inn, Tur Langton. A sumptuous carvery, followed by a delicious cheesecake dessert was enjoyed by all. President, Jill Davies, made the awards to our players. Malcolm Moss was our Champion of Champions for the second year running. Jackie Arrowsmith was our Ladies Champion (both pictured with Jill Davies, President of Kibworth Bowling Club).

Players from Kibworth Cosmopolitan’s Rounders Team have raised more than £600 for Cancer Research UK.

For two weeks in October photographs adorned 20 windows and noticeboards of Kibworth.

In our October meeting the Kibworth Art Lovers were treated to a masterclass in painting with pastels by Uppingham artist and gallery owner, Peter Barker. Peter is a self-taught artist bringing a fresh approach to painting in oils and pastels. As a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists, his paintings have won him awards. His works can be seen in his gallery in Oakham which includes works by other UK artists. The gallery is well worth a visit. For more information visit Peter Barker Fine Art Gallery website.

October meeting was a real treat with a visit from Jill and John Vickers from ‘Bridge 67’. Jill gave us a short history of how it all started during Covid. The shop opened in November 2020 and is a very popular venue in Kibworth.

As the season draws to a close, the course is once again looking spectacular in its vibrant autumnal colours. The Captain’s Presentation Evenings have been a wonderful success, and the Vice Captains for next year have been announced.

We warmly invite you to our annual Christmas concert, Christmas Sparkle. An enchanting evening of Christmas music, both old and new, which we have no doubt will fill your heart with festive cheer.

Greetings from all of us at Kibworth & District u3a.
