VOLUNTEER REQUIRED
A volunteer is required to take on the task of distributing the Parish
Newsletter to our small team of delivery people.
A Crafty Cup of Coffee at St Peter and St Paul's
Keen on crafts, or just on the chance for a crafty cup of coffee, cakes and
a good chat? St Peter and St Paul's at Algarkirk will be opening its doors
to a new craft club starting on Wednesday, 22 July from 10 to 12 noon,
and all are welcome.
Over the coming months Craft Club leader, Diana Reid, and other cleverfingered folk will be introducing a number of "taster" sessions to allow
people to have a go at all sorts of traditional crafts, from felt making to
The newsletter is an integral part of our parish and is delivered to the
majority of households within Algarkirk. It is collated and produced
by Andy Watt, printed by Chris Cook Print Shop and funded by the
Parish Council; some of the costs are recouped by charging for
advertisements.
There are around 8 delivery drops, all to people within Algarkirk
parish, and this usually takes approximately 45 minutes 6 times a
year.
If you would like to become involved please contact the Parish Clerk,
knitting and model making to tapestry and card making. In between there
will be opportunities for members to bring their own projects in to show
and share with others or even to ask for advice. And it will all take place in
the coffee area of the church where members will be able to also enjoy a
cuppa, some delicious cake and a chat.
"It is amazing how many skilful people there are out there who would love
the chance to share what they are doing or to learn something new,"
Diana said. "There are also a lot of people who perhaps have not had the
chance to learn, but would like to.
"The monthly Coffee, Craft and Cake club is part of the community vision
that we have for the future of Algarkirk church: part of making it a resource
for all the people of the local community.
There will be no charge for club membership, although, as always,
donations are welcome. If you would like to attend but have no transport
please contact us.

Starting to Bring the
Harvest Home
You can't live in Algarkirk without being aware of the agricultural seasons, and
the bringing in of the harvest is perhaps the most obvious of all.
We shall be celebrating it at St Peter and St Paul's with a service on the
4th October at 11.00pm followed by a lunch at the Village Hall from
12.00 noon. Everyone is very welcome to join us for either or both.
Tickets for the lunch and auction are £5 and are available from Pinchin's Farm
Shop or call 460638. If anyone has items to donate for the auction, again,
please call 460638. We would be very grateful. We still need to raise a lot of
money to replace the lead that was stolen from the roof, and every little helps.
We are also harvesting some of the benefits of the hard work that has gone
into the Church restoration project. Last month we had a very successful
Heritage Open Day with medieval musicians and craftsmen adding to the fun.
It was great to see the children dressed up in their historic costumes too.
Our thanks to all those who helped out and made it a really good day.
There have been lots of other training days too, in specialised types of
activities. Everything from tracing local history through the churchyard to
making glass or gilding. These have all proved very popular and will help
St Peter and St Paul's to become an outpost of Lincolnshire's Heritage
programme.
The Crafty Coffee Club is established now too as a regular community event
with a meeting on every 4th Wednesday of the month. Do come along and
share in the fun, There is no charge and lots of opportunities to try new things
or to share your experience with others.
We are also getting the first fruits from the architects and specialists who are
looking at the work that needs to be undertaken at the church to ensure the
building is safe and strong for the village now and in generations to come
(not just repairing the roof, but also how we can heat the building enough to
be able to use it throughout the year!) We will be arranging a meeting before
the end of the year so that everyone will have the chance to come and see the
plans and give their feedback. It is really important that the whole community
has a chance to have their say in the future of their church!
We shall be arranging other activities for the Christmas period, so do keep an
eye out on the www.algarkirkchurch.org website and on the notice boards.
In particular, we have a woad talk and demonstration on the 8th October,
in the village hall at 7.00pm. Woad was historically a very valuable crop in
Algarkirk and the area. It was even mentioned in the doomsday book. And,
the connection lasted because Algarkirk had the very last working mill in the
country!
Do come along and find out more about this aspect of our village history.
Happy Harvest!

1 September 2015 at the Village Hall at 7.20pm.
There had been an incident on the footpath between the churchyard and
Park Avenue caused by no lighting on the Sutterton side; this had raised
concerns for safety and the Clerk will contact Sutterton Parish Council.

Highways. Archers Lane will be closed on 3 September to allow for

asking for a volunteer.
Emergency Plan It has been some time since amendments were made to
the Community Emergency Plan and forwarded for finalisation by Lincs
Fire and Rescue; it was agreed to formulate our own plan with the
assistance of LALC as it was obvious some of the original details
will need changing.
Anti-social Behaviour : Ian Dunn has been appointed the new Anti-Social
Behaviour Officer for the Boston area. He would be happy to assist with
any issues of anti-social behaviour and would attend a Parish Council
meeting if necessary.
Playing Field - Access from the small gate is not big enough for
motorised wheelchair access; Councillor Stephens will look to assess if the
barrier can be moved.
The rubbish bin has been broken; Councillor A Spencer will raise the
matter with Mr G Barnard of Boston Borough Council.
There does not appear to be a spare key for the large gate padlock;
Mandy Watt to make enquiries.
Village Hall - The green and blue bins sited near to the churchyard
entrance are being used by other people.
Following discussion it was agreed to move the bins to the front of the
Village Hall, it was not necessary to request/purchase any additional bins.
The broken window in the hall has been replaced and the gutter at the rear
has been cleaned out. Bingo numbers are around 45 – 50.
The insurance renewal has been received.
