  • CLUBS, SOCIETIES and Other GROUPS
    CLUBS, SOCIETIES and other GROUPS. It is probably the sign of a vibrant and healthy community that there are people willing to voluntarily give their time and energy to the organisation and running of Clubs, Societies and other Groups for the benefit of others. If this is a valid measure of a lively community then East Bridgford has certainly qualified throughout the century. At the end of the century we can identify at least thirty voluntary organisations operating in the village. In addition there have been other organisations that have existed for varying pe­ riods during the century. Times and interests change and organisations come and go. For example the Pig Club, the Poultry Club and the Patriotic Rabbit Club would today probably have problems sustaining viable membership numbers given the paucity of Pig, Poultry and Rabbit keepers now living in the village. It is also important to recognise that in addition to the more formally organised clubs and societies the village has often had 'ad hoc' teams playing darts, skittles, tug-of-war, table tennis, whist, cribbage and dominoes. The details of the various organisations that follow have, in the main, been provided by members of those organisations. We are indebted to them for the work they have undertaken to put down on paper the story of their Club, Society or other Group. We should also like to record, on behalf of the village, our appreciation and thanks to all the officers of all these or­ ganisations, many of whom serve their organisation for year after year, for all they have con­ tributed to making living in East Bridgford such an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
