1st Adderbury Cubs and Scouts
We have had a busy few months at the Adderbury Cubs and Scouts. It’s been great to welcome new starters and we now have 19 Scouts, including an all-girls patrol and 16 Cubs. We are planning to return to weekly cub meetings early in the New Year. We hold our regular meeting night on Thursdays, with the Cubs slot prior to Scouts.
We have a few spaces in Cubs and Scouts. If you would like to have a free trial session, please reserve your place by sending an email to Cubs – Zoe Lee [email protected] or to Scouts – Catherine Hillier [email protected].
We practice every Monday at the Adderbury Bowls Club, enjoying the wonderful facilities. We are a friendly group of all ages enjoying strumming and singing popular songs, in a relaxed atmosphere. New players are always made welcome. The group have continued to develop by adding more songs to their repertoire. Many new members have joined following the beginners’ classes at the start of the year, also experienced players have joined after finding out about the group. As well as the regular Monday evening practice at the Bowl’s Club, there was an improvers’ class on a Friday morning at “Let’s Play” in Adderbury. This had to change and the Improvers class has moved to St Hugh’s Church in Banbury on a Thursday morning.
Adderbury Running Club has kept going throughout the pandemic. During lockdown 1, we had to run individually, and it wasn’t until halfway through last year that we could start running in groups again, albeit groups of no more than six. During lockdown 3, we could exercise in pairs and every Sunday morning a small number of enthusiastic runners turned up even in the very worst of weather conditions to set off in groups of two at 10-minute intervals.
Would you like to cycle in a group? Do you have a hybrid or a mountain bike, or even an E-bike? Cycling is good for your health, fitness and well-being and is a great way to explore the countryside. Did you know that we now have two informal and very friendly cycling groups in Adderbury? The Adderbury Wheels and the Recyclists both make use of the beautiful countryside around Adderbury and try to avoid main roads.
