March into Friendship, with the Oddfellows

Yes, Spring is just around the corner! Time to forget gloomy days and to re-emerge from winter hibernation!

The Ipswich Oddfellows have lots of varied events and gettogethers for you to enjoy. They are the perfect excuse to getup-and-go! The Social team plan meetings that appeal to a wide audience from a simple coffee morning to activities, talks, lunches and bingo. The friendly group have arranged a visit to Christchurch Mansion to view the art exhibition “Landscape Rebels”. One member said, “I’ve seen it advertised but haven’t got round to going. March 15th at 10.30am is a definite date in my diary now”.

Do you have happy memories of pirate radio and Radio Caroline? Guest speakers from Felixstowe and Offshore Radio will give an audio visual presentation to re-kindle those fond memories on March 27th at 1.30pm

A visit has been organised to “It’s Rocket Science” in Claydon for a fun afternoon of experiments on 29th March. Do you remember science when you were at school? (or perhaps you’d rather not!) Join the group and find out!

Ipswich Oddfellows meet at The Oddfellows Hall in High Street Ipswich. Guests are welcome to come along and experience the friendship on offer. To find out more please contact the Branch secretary Lynne phone 01473 251867 or email ipswich.branch@oddfellows.co.uk. See facebook.com/ oddfellowsipswich
