Weekly Bulletin Issue 126. October 23rd 2014
NIA Community Hall - the End of an Era After 20 years as a Spice sports venue, NIA Community Hall has closed due to funding issues. We are checking out new Birmingham venues and will introduce a replacement as soon as possible. In the meantime we continue to offer free badminton sessions in Coventry, Wolverhampton and Worcester plus other sports venues. I’m sure all members would wish to join me in thanking Des, Chris and the team for their huge contribution to sport in Spice over the years.
Spice Midlands Ski Trip There’s a nip in the air, so it’s time to plan our winter fun! If your idea of fun is a big log cabin with its own Jacuzzi, good food, Spice friends and some of the worlds finest ski slopes at hand .. then you really need to get our own Morzine Ski Trip booked. These annual trips are popular with skiers of all levels and with absolute beginners as well. We still have a few places at “earlybird” rates HERE
Scary Spice! When we recently asked you on Facebook for words that summed up Spice membership to you, the front runners were “Fun” and “Friends”. However, October is the time when we add another “F” word into the mix – “Fright”. My scary costume has just arrived for our spectacular Halloween Party on Halloween Night (for late places click HERE or HERE). Some of you are even crossing over to Spice East Midlands the day after to help them celebrate Halloween. We also have Ghostly Walks arranged in Sutton (HERE), Birmingham (HERE) & Bridgnorth (HERE). We have a ghost hunt tonight at Tutbury Castle and even our next Dance Workshop has a scary “Thriller” theme (Click HERE). We are here to help you enjoy all the seasons with Spice. So if broomsticks, pumpkins and things that go bump in the night are your kind of magic, then do make sure you don’t miss out. Just bring a strong heart and perhaps a clove of garlic – and we’ll show you a good time! As ever, this Bulletin is designed to give you a quick overview of what is happening this week in Spice.

Clocks go back Sunday Yay, we get a lie in this Sunday! Can’t be bad. Just make sure you don’t forget if you’re booked on an event with us this Sunday.
Photo of the Week Our coveted award goes this week to Sarah Watmore who’s “in the pink” relaxing with the girls on her 1st Spice event, Canadian Canoeing. See HERE
Camping at Christmas? Are we mad? Well not entirely, as our Twixtmas Camping Pod Walking Weekend uses cosy, wool lined camping pods rather than tents. It all makes for a brilliant value break with Alan that has lots of great food (and pub time) included as well as some of England’s finest walking. See HERE
