March 2017 Extra

Crantock Memory Cafe is always pleased to welcome visitors from Newquay and surrounding villages as well as Crantock itself, and our March Memory Cafe Extra was no exception.  As usual, there was a warm and friendly atmosphere and members were soon puzzling over a word-search and a quiz based on past events that took place in March. Meanwhile, Richard distributed copies of the increasingly popular ‘Sparkle’ reminiscence magazine.

We were delighted to welcome back the Cornish Dance Group from Newquay U3A. Dressed in their Cornish tartan sashes, they gave us a delightful display interspersed with interesting and amusing verses, and also encouraged the more energetic of us to ‘have a go!’ 

 

  

Whilst having our tea we sang along to ‘We’ll meet again’ to mark Vera Lynn’s 100^th birthday today.  After tea, everyone enjoyed a game of Musical Bingo before the answers to the March Quiz were revealed and the session drew to a close.

Our next meetings will be held at Crantock Village Hall on Monday 3^rd April and Monday 24^th April from 2pm – 4pm. Please note that there will be a longer gap between the sessions due to the Easter weekend.

Crantock Memory Cafe is always pleased to welcome new members, with their carers, and should you need further information ring Di on 01637 830544 or Joan on 01637 831347.
