Weekly Bulletin Issue 146. March 26th 2015
Summer Ball Save the Date We will shortly be launching the first ever joint East Mids & West Midlands Summer Party. The date will be July 11th and we hope to have full details online by the end of this week.
Let’s get Literary! We know that a lot of you like books. Our own Book Club has a popular following. So we are delighted to have tickets this year for The Althorp Literary Festival. Not only is it a lovely Summer’s occasion at a gorgeous venue, but we have got in quick to book the best of the authors sessions: ● Richard & Judy ● Rev Richard Coles ● Sophie Dahl & Earl Spencer ● Rachel & Stanley Johnson We only have 20 places held so be quick.

Qwak Qwak! Our annual Duck Race to raise money for The Cancer Support Centre is on 10th May. It’s a fun, free, family event which is timed so you can enjoy the open day at New Hall Mill afterwards. All we need you to do is buy a duck or donate a prize. Click HERE

Pies & Champagne Tasting? Variety is the life of Spice, so the slogan says. So I shouldn’t be surprised that I’m here planning a Champagne Tasting evening whilst also making final preparations for our huge booking (70 people!) at the Pie Factory in Tipton tomorrow! Furthermore, this weekend could see you abseiling down a 418ft Lift Tower or a taking a guided tour of Birmingham Art Gallery. The choice is yours! We all like a bit of variety in our lives and our Spring and Summer Programme brings it in spade-fulls. Most of our events through to the end of July are now loaded on our website. You will also be getting a printed Newsletter just after Easter. So make sure you make the best of all the fun we’ve planned – as it won’t be the same without you! As ever, this Bulletin is designed to give you a quick overview of what is happening this week in Spice. “Anything in blue - should click through”.
