Updates and alterations April 2017

A few things you may want to know..

There is no fish and chip delivery on April 11th – this service from the Lions Club and the Methodist Church resumes (we hope) in the autumn, as usual.

The Grapes quiz night is one week later than normal, on Sunday 23rd April, to avoid Easter Sunday

The guided tours of Slingsby Church are on Saturday May 6th, not April 22nd as the church news sheet says.

The table of refuse and recycling days on the back of the new Triangle applies to Slingsby and Fryton only – South Holme is different. For details of this fascinating subject (which drives us all mad trying to get it right) see our webpage HERE.
