Welcome to the June 2022 issue of the Barnby Dun & Edenthorpe Arrow. This month I’m looking forward to spending more time outdoors with family and friends, as we hopefully see the weather improving, as we head towards the longest day on the 21st June! At last The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations are here. I hope there are lots of community events and activities happening in the villages: street parties, picnics, concerts, tea dances. What ever you decide to do, celebrate in style. I would love to receive some photos of the day so we can publish them in the next issue The deadline for the July Issue is Thursday 16th June Best Wishes Julie Morrell Tel: 07854 880882 Julie@arrowpublications.co.uk www.arrowpublications.co.uk Find us on facebook

Community News There is a new crafting club with a difference in Edenthorpe Held every alternate Thursday evening at thevEden Arms it is totally free to attend and the group covers a wide range of crafting. From yarn artists to sewers, to card makers, all are welcome irrespective of skill and abilities. New crafters are always welcome to learn from our experienced members and there's an opportunity to join in on community projects.
The Friday Men's Club based in Barnby Dun has received a generous donation of £75.50 from the Co-Op in Kirk Sandall who raised funds by selling sunflowers recently. These funds will be put towards a new, folding table football game for the members to enjoy. New members always welcome
Mental wellbeing and socialising is at the root of why the group was set up by local resident Lucinda and she is happy to talk things through and encourages any one who wishes to join or enquire to email craftandthecurious@gmail.com or follow the group on Facebook 'The Craft and the Curious' If you do not wish to attend group, you can still follow along online and still get involved in community projects.
On Palm Sunday, villagers of Barnby Dun walked through the village waving palms. Unfortunately, the donkey couldn't make it this year but this didn't dampen the spirits of the friendly, enthusiastic participants. This village tradition was paused for the past two years due to Covid but goes back at least ten years prior to that.
Barnby Dun with Kirk Sandall Parish Council has voted to put on a free event at the Recreation Ground, Barnby Dun, on Thursday 2nd June to mark the Platinum Jubilee of HM Queen Elizabeth II. Starting from 5.00pm, events include a funfair, live music and the lighting of a beacon at 9.45pm to coincide with the nationwide jubilee beacon lighting celebrations. The evening will then finish off with a firework display

darts celebrates after receiving £199,070 in National Lottery funding darts – Doncaster’s participatory arts charity - is celebrating today after being awarded £199,070 in funding from The National Lottery Community Fund, the largest funder of community activity in the UK. darts will use the funding to deliver a further three years of Creative Directions – a much-needed weekly group that improves mental health and wellbeing in adults. The Reaching Communities funding will pay for artists to deliver creative sessions at The Point in central Doncaster and in Edlington.
The groups are friendly, welcoming and inclusive – if people are unsure about attending, they can have a chat with a member of staff about what to expect. People are encouraged to come along and have a go – even if they don’t feel able to stay for the full session at first. Dr Elanor Stannage – the Project Manager for Creative Directions says: “Thanks to National Lottery players, this grant means that we can continue to run sessions that build confidence, improve and maintain mental health and wellbeing, and provide opportunities for people to meet people, make connections and build new friendships. This will make a big difference to people’s lives.” To find out more about Creative Directions, please contact Amy on 01302 493991 or amy@wearedarts.org.uk To find out when the sessions take place, keep an eye on https://thepoint.org.uk/whats-on/ National Lottery players raise over £30 million a week for good causes across the UK. The National Lottery Community Fund distributes a share of this to projects to support people and communities to prosper and thrive. During the pandemic, in 2020 alone, The National Lottery Community Fund distributed almost £1 billion to charities and community organisations across the UK.

THORNE CAMERA CLUB The club had two excellent speakers, first, Stephen Dean with 'Themes and Journeys' a talk on photographic trips over the last two years throughout the UK and was complimented with projected images with excellent landscapes with very moody skies with supplementary printed images, and second, Colin Lusby with a very humorous approach to a talk on the 'Art for the Untalented' in which he demonstrated simple manipulation of images can produce some very interesting results. All of the entries in our recent print competition were on display at our exhibition at the Coffee Morning held in the Methodist Church Hall. The attendance was very encouraging for both the club and the Methodist Church and similar exhibitions are proposed in the future. Our latest 'Print' competition, judged by David Burgess, again produced some outstanding entries. David gave a full and wide ranging critique for each entry which members found useful. David's final choice of entries were 1st Terry Gunnill with 'The Go Between', 2nd Bob Allen with 'Jaguar' and 3rd Anne-Louise Allen with 'Pensive'. Highly Commended entries were Allen Denby, Colin Jarvis, Bob Allen, June Horbury and Bill Mitchell. Commended entries were Lynda Ulyett (2), Allen Denby. We are now coming to the end of the first year for the new committee and into the Summer Outing Programme. The year has been interesting with a varied programme for the members to participate and enjoy and has provided a fresh impetus and enthusiasm for the club. The Summer Outings Programme for the summer months will provide a wide range of locations giving members excellent photographic opportunities. The venues will include:28th May Viking Festival, York. 13th June Bempton Cliffs 9th July Barton Bike Night 27th July Yorkshire Sculpture Park Wakefield 10th August Elvington Air Museum 24th August Beamish Museum (Mini Bus) We welcome readers of our column of whatever experience to join us on Monday evenings at 7.15pm at the Methodist Chapel Hall. Join now and enjoy the Summer Outing Programme. For more information please email Terry at cameraclubthorne@gmail.com MONTY'S MONTHLY TIP To photograph garden birds, keep the bird feeders topped up with a wide range of food to encourage a variety of subjects. Use a hide if possible to get close to the birds to enable a small bird to fill the frame. Set the camera to Aperture Priority, which will allow the camera to set the shutter speed and ISO settings and set a wide aperture.
