Turf Required – Can You Help?

Volunteers from the Comrades Hall Committee have been working on levelling off the area around the shelter and would just like to let it be known locally that if anyone has any turf off cuts left over, or are likely to have in the near future – they would be gratefully received!

Please contact Chair, Megan Jones on 01308 868067 if you can help. Thank you.

The Comrades Hall 100 Club Is Back!

Many of you will recall taking part in the Comrades Hall 100 Club over recent years, the last one being in September 2022. The Comrades Hall 100 Club is a means of raising funds for the Hall and to give members a chance to win some money. Half of the membership fees go to the Hall and the remainder will go into the draws which take place four times a year. More specifically, the Hall committee are looking into replacing both the range cooker in the kitchen and the windows and stage curtains, so you can be assured that your donations are going towards a very good cause.

As the name suggests, they are looking for 100 members to purchase tickets at an annual cost of £15 each. Every member will be allocated a number from 1 to 100. The draws will take place on the first Tuesday in September, December, March and June undertaken by the Post Master at the Post Office Coffee Club.

Sara Dyke and Margaret Wing will shortly be approaching those who have been members of the 100 Club previously to see if they would like to continue. Anyone is welcome to join, either as an individual or an organisation, so if you would like to be involved, please contact Sara or Margaret to be added to the list.

They would like to start off with their first draw in September and the prizes are definitely worth having. There are 6 cash prizes allocated to each draw:

The September, March and June draws will have prizes of:

1^st £75
2^nd £50
3^rd £25
4^th £15
5^th £10
6^th £5

The December draw will be a Christmas special with slightly higher prize money:

1^st £100
2^nd £50
3^rd £25
4^th £15
5^th £10
6^th £5

The 100 numbers are sure to be snapped up very quickly, so please don’t delay in getting yours!

Broadwindsor Film Club – Friday, 21st July

At 7.30pm at the Comrades Hall on Friday, 21st July, Broadwindsor’s Community Film Club will be showing…

The Fabelmans (12)

Directed by Stephen Spielberg and starring Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, Gabriel LaBelle and Judd Hirsch.
Running time: 2hrs 31mins.

Already described as Spielberg’s “masterpiece” by some critics, The Fabelmans is one of the big favourites to take home 2023’s Oscar for Best Picture.

Loosely based on Spielberg’s childhood growing up in post-World War II era Arizona, from age seven to eighteen, a young man named Sammy Fabelman, played by Gabriel LaBelle, falls in love with movies after his parents take him to see “The Greatest Show on Earth.” Armed with a camera, Sammy starts to make his own films at home, much to the delight of his supportive mother. He discovers a shattering family secret, and explores how the power of movies help us see the truth about each other and ourselves.
The Fabelmans tells a timeless tale of heartbreak, healing and hope for the dreamer inside all of us.

Doors open at 7pm for 7.30pm.
Film Club members – Free entry
Guests – £4 (cash please)

Full Moon – Monday, 3rd July

Tonight’s Full Moon will be the biggest the lunar surface has looked from Earth so far this year. This s because it is also a Supermoon: the closest, brightest Full Moon. Two supermoons will be seen in August, which will include a blue moon that will be the closest moon to Earth this year. The fourth and final supermoon in 2023 will rise on 29th September.

Commonly called the Buck Moon (because the antlers of male deer (bucks) are in full-growth mode at this time), it is also known as the Thunder Moon, or Hay Moon. Traditionally, each full Moon name was applied to the entire lunar month in which it occurred, not solely to the Full Moon.

The indigenous Ojibwe people of the Great Lakes region call this Moon the Halfway Summer Moon, or the Raspberry Moon.
The Cherokees call it the Corn in Tassel Moon.
The Cree Nation of central Canada calls the Full Moon the Feather Moulting Moon
The Mohawks call it the Fruits are Ripened Moon.

Because the Moon is full when it is opposite the sun in the sky, Full Moons always rise in the east as the sun is setting, and set in the west at sunrise. Since sunlight is striking the Moon vertically at that time, no shadows are cast; all of the variations in brightness you see arise from differences in the reflectivity of the lunar surface rocks 🙂
