Here we are again after our summer break. Despite the fact we didn’t have a formal meeting there was still lots going on.

In August we had our annual educational trip. This time we went to the World of Glass in St Helens to see a demonstration of glass blowing. Marchin the glass blower had trained for over 20 years to perfect his art and the bowl he made was truly beautiful. We also had a fascinating guided tour around the old glass works.

During the break Kath arranged a fun afternoon at the North Wales Bowling Centre which was made even better by a tasty lunch in the Centre’s restaurant.

Our Walking group continued during August and our Singing and Craft Groups will restart this month. Details will be posted on our Facebook page and also circulated by email.

17th August was the Denbigh and Flint Show and members submitted items for a variety of the classes: cakes, preserves, craft items and artwork.

21 members submitted over 100 items and we were successful in many classes including the cup for the Craft Best in Show. We were the winning Federation this year, well done to everyone who entered.

Also in August we had a Members lunch followed by a bowls session at the North Wales Bowling Centre.

Our meetings got off to an amazing start in September when we had an exhibition of Flamenco dancing from dancer, Christine Stockton.

In October Committee member Kath Winn will share with us the core elements of Assertiveness techniques. She has worked for many years as a qualified Assertiveness trainer as part of her professional role as an NHS Ward Sister.

Dyserth W.I. continues to offer fun and friendship to any woman living in and around Dyserth including Trelawnyd, Rhyl, Rhuddlan and Prestatyn. We meet at 7.00 p.m. on the second Friday of every month [except August]
