HOBY RECREATION TRUST Calling anyone interested in organising anything for the recreation of Hoby residents of ALL ages! If you’d like to organise a children’s party, a teenager’s get together or a fun night out for Hoby residents and you need some financial support, please talk to any of the Trustees of the Hoby Recreation Trust and submit a request in writing to [email protected] The Hoby Recreation Trust was established many years ago from the proceeds of the sale of the Hoby school playground and its constitution is to further the recreation of residents of the village. Over the years Hoby Recreation Trust has sponsored the pensioners’ Christmas lunch, paid for benches on the footpaths, equipment for the Art Group, daffodil bulbs for the gateways to the village, a trip to Skegness, supported the play area and children’s Christmas party and cinema. So, if you would like to plan and organise something recreational for Hoby residents, why not talk to us about potential funding? TRUSTEES Angus Walker Anne Thomas Alexandra Fairhurst Rosemary Rainbow James Reid Nicky Ainscough Hoby Internet Café Can I remind readers that the Hoby Internet Café (The Greasy Spoon) is open on Monday and Thursday mornings at the Hoby Methodist Chapel, from 10.00am - 12.00 noon. We have laptops available and an IPad and can give basic instructions on their use to non technical people. If you have your own equipment and want some help bring it along , we’ll get you started. The café is open to everyone who lives in the area and a small charge of £2 is made to cover costs of your tea/coffee and biscuits. If you just want to pop in and have a natter, you are most welcome.
