Welcome back to the BUZZ Roundup – keeping you in touch with happenings in Keevil village come rain or shine…
Well, the last day of November is drawing to a close as I write, and tomorrow the 2023 Keevil Christmas gets well and truly underway!
- Kicking things off in style on Friday 1st December, the WI are hosting mulled wine and mince pies outside Birch Cottage on Pyatts Corner at 6.00pm to launch the start of the Advent Trail, including Christmas treats for children, everyone welcome!
- On Saturday morning 2nd December the annual CHURCH CHRISTMAS COFFEE MORNING is back in the village hall from 10am – 12noon: Coffee and mince pies, wreath making kits, raffle and Christmas gifts, including a few really special treats: Issy Peel will be selling her handmade Christmas decorations, and the Art Group have produced a Calendar which will be on sale.
- Then on Sunday 3rd December 3.30pm its the beautiful Family Christingle service at St Leonard’s Church, this a really special family service, so don’t miss it!
Coming up next week…
- Stock up on your Christmas reading when the MOBILE LIBRARY returns on Monday 4th December outside Rose and Crown Cottages at Stocks Green, 10.35-10.55am;
- 1st TUESDAY CLUB will have a festive air about it on Tuesday 5th December, cuppas and cake 2.30-4pm in the village hall (Post Office also open);
- The ART GROUP is back in the village hall at 10am on Wednesday 6th December, all welcome! I have a feeling some amazing projects will be getting underway… 😉
- Saturday 9th December is a busy day! So get your Christmas jumper on and start your morning with BREAKFAST IN CHURCH 9-11am. Hot bacon or sausage butties washed down with a cuppa and Christmas carols playing in the background, just turn up and enjoy the company…
- … then at 4.30pm lights on the Christmas tree outside the village hall will be switched on, with singing of carols, and refreshments in the Hall afterwards…
- … and at 7pm that evening, we have the WELCOME to CHRISTMAS CONCERT 7pm in St Leonards Church with the Wiltshire Police Band, MGB, and Keevil Singers- see page for ticket deets;
And finally for now…
There will be changes to Household waste, recycling, and garden waste collections over the Christmas period. Waste collection crews will not be working on Monday 25 December, Tuesday 26 December and Monday 1 January. Garden waste collections will pause for two weeks, the last collection will take place on Friday 22 December. Service will resume Tuesday 9 January, and your normal collection day will be delayed by one day, starting with collections which would normally have taken place on Monday 8 January. Normal service will resume for all collections on Monday 15 January.
