Sprotbrough 2010 Scout Road Race & Family Gala The 2010 Sprotbrough Scout Road Race and Family Gala event takes place on Sunday 20th June, 1pm on New Lane Playing Fields. A Pasta party is planned for the Saturday 19th June from 6.30 pm which is a family food and entertainment evening. Entry to the party is by ticket only- £7.00 adults and £3.50 children. Contact Janet Graves on 853932 for tickets.

Come along with family and friends to what has been in the past, a very enjoyable day. Good Luck, if you are entering the road race event, it was a scorcher last year!

Organiser, Janet Graves from the Scout Supporter group said ‗I would like to thank everyone for their valued contribution. We welcome the Elm field Armthorpe Brass Band this year, who will provide excellent musical entertainment as you visit the various other attractions- speed kick, golf target, archery, pony rides as well as a wide range of favourites such as Bouncy Slide, Hook a duck, Coconut shy, Cats on the Wall, plants, crafts, jewellery, tombola, and ice cream stall. There will be plenty of refreshments in the new main marquee, including beer tent, baked potatoes, burgers, strawberry cream teas and tempting ‘naughty but nice’ cakes on our cake stall.

We also welcome community groups such as Don Valley Gorge Heritage Trust, Sprotbrough Park Play group, Air Cadets, Fire Service, Police, and St Mary’s Church Group. Thanks go to our local Community First Group, St John’s Ambulance and the Community Police service who we rely on for ‘all the behind the scenes support’ A special ‘thank you’ to Police officer, Lynne Walker, who has supported us each year for both our major community events (annual parade and gala) as she will be retiring immediately after the gala this year. We wish all the very best in her future ventures!

As you may have noticed, I mentioned the new marquee. Thanks to the generosity of all those who have supported our fundraising efforts to date (including a grant from the Coal Board Re generation Fund), we have now acquired a new bigger marquee to provide even better facilities for all group events. We also were able to buy additional navigation equipment and computer software to aid orienteering ventures in the group, a new oven and additional tables and benches, which were extremely helpful at our family camp for 120 people last summer after the gala last year!

Finally, on behalf of the Scout supporters group, I would like to thank all the Sponsors, families, friends, local businesses, Parish Council, our team within Scout Supporters group and the young people within our organisation.

Together it makes for a great team which makes this event a pleasure to organise, so ENJOY THE DAY!’ If you are interested in running the road race, you can download an application form from the Sprotbrough scouts website www.sprotbroughscouts.co.uk

Live Steam Railway Event is back!

Back by popular demand is the Garden Railway at the home of Andrea and Roger Offord with live steam trains.

They opened their garden last year to raise funds and Roger persuaded his pals to bring their locos too. Cream teas were served as the trains puffed around the garden tracks; great fun!

The event proved so popular with all ages that they have been encouraged to ―do it again!‖ This time, Sandra and David next door are opening their garden too allowing more room for stalls, children‘s treasure hunt and somewhere to sit. (You‘ll be able to walk though via a bridge over the tracks!)

Raising funds for St Mary‘s Sprotbrough Church Roof and Save the Children this will certainly be another worthwhile event.

So get yourselves down to 2 and 4 Ledbury Gardens, Cusworth on Saturday 5th June between 11 am and 3:30 pm!

Skincare Make up Nails Skincare Make up Nails Dear Reader, With summer on the horizon with its promise of sunny days bringing the annual summer holiday very much to mind, I could write page after page on all the wonderful beauty treatments you can sample to prepare yourself for relaxation in the sun. As space is at a premium, however, I shall just feature a selection in each of the next few issues.

After having being cocooned in winter clothes for many months, many of us dread thought of being seen in our swimwear. If losing a few pounds concerns you, a herbal weight loss tablet may be just thing you‘re after. Safe and very effective, and starting from £4.95 for a trial bottle, they are definitely value for money.

To improve your silhouette, ideally just before you go away, try

„Body Boutique‟s Body Wrap‟. This wrap

achieves slimming and firming by creating a rapid break down and elimination of fatty deposits that may cause cellulite – these are not water loss wraps and work by drawing out toxins to promote inch loss.

The other dreaded summer horror... body hair!!! Shaving is

okay but does not achieve lasting results, so if you don‘t fancy shaving every couple of days on „Achieve a holiday there are permanent alternative solutions. reduction From personal in body experience of hair this performing this summer!‟ treatment for over six years, I strongly recommend IPL (Intense Pulse Light), which achieves amazing results and a permanent reduction in hair growth. After IPL I would recommend waxing, which is quick and inexpensive and requires repetition only every 4 to 6 weeks.

Okay! Now we have dealt with surplus weight and hair, it‟s time to consider dull, lifeless skin.

Commence with body brushing or a body scrub to remove all the dead skin cells and bring a healthy glow to the surface skin. Perfect Harmony can make this task more pleasurable by carrying out:

Kiwi & Sugar Cane Body Exfoliation Applied by hand massage, which eliminates dead skin cells, impurities and roughness; your skin is then moisturised, leaving it radiant, silky and renewed.

Time 1 hour. Cost £30.00 Want your skin looking beautiful before that two weeks vacation? in St. Tropez air tanning treatment is the answer! This involves applying a specially formulated product via an airbrush. The application is quick and easy, giving a perfect, streak-free, natural looking tan.

„Arrive on holiday, with that post holiday glow‟

Perfect!

Perfect Harmony/Arrow‟s Gift Voucher for June is going to a gentleman who lives on Sprotbrough Road, whom I personally feel deserves a special treat. One of Louise‘s Indian Head Massages will fit the bill perfectly!!!

June’s Beauty Quote

Five tips to prepare your car for summer

Doncaster Advanced Motorists

Dear readers, After a long winter of wear and tear through snow, salt and potholes - and volcanic dust - your car will be in need of a little TLC. Being prepared for the summer and making checks now can save you a lot of money in the long run. Try to deal with any minor problems and repairs as they happen, as they can become very expensive if left to build up over time.

Here are five tips to prepare your car: rusting if left on the bodywork. If possible take your car to a car wash that specializes in under-car cleaning to get rid of every trace. sufferers, so replacing your car‟s pollen filter annually is a vital investment. Keeping your aircon well maintained will help, too.

-con will help your car smell better. If it smells stale when you turn the heating on, it could well be a sign that mould is building up in your condenser. the windscreen and headlamps when you stop for fuel is also important as windscreen wipers won‟t get rid of all the fly debris. remember to replace them regularly. After the dust that has fallen from the volcanic ash cloud, it is particularly important that you clean them regularly to avoid damaging your windscreen.

Certain checks should be made regardless of the season: Anti-freeze contains corrosion inhibitors so you should keep your car topped up with the right mixture all year round; going without could lead to expensive internal damage such as a blown head gasket.

If you are interested in further information regarding the courses that we offer, you‘ll be able to find this information on the Institute of Advanced Motorists website at www.iam.org.uk or Tel: 020 8996 9600

Sprotbrough Road Community Church (Methodist)

The Family Table Recently we had two Fun Days for families in one week. One was on a Sunday afternoon and the other on a Tuesday afternoon at 3.30pm as the children leave school. We feel these activities are well received and everyone enjoys the time very much. We have TABLES set out in a ‘U‘ shape, so we feel closer together.

There‘s painting and colouring shapes and pictures, things to make, games to play and songs to sing. All this reminds me so much of my childhood when we did similar things. There‘s a real ‘feel good factor‘ when we‘re all sitting around the tables talking, working and playing together. We learn about each other, our likes and dislikes, and we become friends sharing in sad days and happy days. I‘m sure many of you can recall the old days, when we had parties at home, how the adults seemed to gravitate to the kitchen to prepare food, and later attack the mounds of washing up, there was many a secret shared there.

Again this reminds me of THE LORD‘S TABLE where we share the Sacrament.

Sharing the bread and wine to remember how He took OUR SINS on HIS own shoulders so that we can have a new life, a new life forever. Let‘s not forget the time we shared at Easter so soon.

Wherever we gather round a table, whether it‘s a Fun Day or some other event, we are so close to Jesus, we can talk to Him anytime, knowing He will listen and understand. He is with you all the time and always will be. His arms and His heart are always open to us night or day.

Let Him be your friend and life long companion.

God Bless you all.

See you next month

Jean Scott
