Archery

The A Team!

PGL welcomed Osmington Society members and friends to their Osmington site to give them the opportunity to take part in the activities the site offers. Instructors showed the two groups how to obtain a bull’s-eye in archery and how to abseil down the newly opened tower!
Mixed ages and abilities from 7 to 65+ enjoyed the challenges set and are eagerly awaiting a return visit.
A donation to the PGL charity from the group raised £122.60 and all wished Bruce Garrard PGL Manager well for his Marathon run the next day.
Thanks must go to Bruce and his team for a fun and exciting morning.

Saturday 19th May, 1-3pm, Osmington Village Hall

Arts & crafts, handmade gifts for all, also seating for tea’s & coffee’s, cakes & treats. this will be a monthly event, every 3rd Saturday, (except October).

I hope all the Villagers will get together and come along for a cuppa and a catch up.  I hope this to be something the people of osmington use for a regular ‘meeting up place’.  All the cakes sold will be made by myself and will be traditional and sometimes quirky.  An opportunity for local-to-Dorset talented crafts people to make an earning from their amazing skills!

A village party / lunch in celebration of the Queen’s Jubilee is being held at the Village Hall on Sunday 3rd June from 1pm to 4pm.

A competition to design a poster to advertise the event will be announced shortly.

Every house will recieve an invitation the week beginning 7th May. Please RSVP to enable the organisers to cater appropriately.

Entertainment will be provided for children (with the help of PGL) and adults and there will also be a ‘Best Crown’ competition open to all.  Villagers will be asked to contribute a plate of food of their choice.

We’d like to have a display of previous landmarks of the Queen’s reign so if anyone has photographs from the Coronation, Silver Jubilee etc. could you please send to Liz Ireland, Highbanks, Roman Road and she’ll make copies.

Winning Wenches!

The Quiz Night at the Sunray Osmington was a great success and fun with 15 teams taking part. Donations of raffle prizes from The Smugglers Inn and the Sunray as well as from villagers ensured a splendid raffle at the halfway mark. The evening raised £302 to fund the coaches for bringing the children from Broadmayne School and Frome Valley School to see the Torch Relay run through Osmington on 13th July.
A big thanks must go to all who helped and donated both prizes and money and especially to Jill our Quizmaster for the evening.
Although it was a close call the Osmington Wenches took the quiz prize kindly donated by the Sunray.
