Organised by Auchencairn and Rerrick Church Guild this annual event takes place on Wednesday 16th July over an extended lunch period from 12.00 noon to 2.00pm to allow time and space for as many people to attend the event in The Murray Hall, as is possible. For a cost of £4.00 per head (£2.00 under age 12 years) which is donated to the church funds, everyone is provided with an excellent meal. It is a very good opportunity to meet people and chatter. Visitors to the area are most welcome. Tickets are available from Guild Members or from Auchencairn Store.

Book early and avoid disappointment - the tickets are always in great demand.

Our summer outing to The Rheged Centre, Penrith is on Thursday 31st July 08.

Non-Members have the opportunity to join us at a cost of £10.00 each (no concessions) towards travel.

Our bus is likely to leave Auchencairn at about 9am and return about 6pm. Pick ups en route may be arranged. Those attending will have to provide or purchase their own refreshments and bear the cost for any other activity that they chose to undertake on the day. There are at least 12 shops and 3 different style cafes on the site. There is a giant screen cinema that shows a different film every hour (£3.95 for seniors for 1 film and another £2.50 for subsequent – others £1.00 extra for each). A very successful (and free entry) exhibition about Cumbria has been extended through this year. The advertising blurb certainly indicates that there is something of interest to suit most people and ages.

Details have still to be finalised but Non-Members interested in attending the Thursday Club outing should please contact me in the first instance as soon a possible in order to secure a place.
