25TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In 1988, as part of a youth club community project, Vic Reed the youth club leader, encouraged local young people to take on the role of publishers, printers and distributors of a \u201cWhat\u2019s On\u201d publication; a previous single sheet of information had originally been produced by a, short lived, local group of Venture Scouts.<\/p>\n

Vic constructed a printing room within the Wheelright Shop, adjacent to the Church Hall. Using stencils and Rono printing machines, along with plenty of black ink, a small monthly magazine appeared for the next five years until Vic moved from the village.<\/p>\n

A small team consisting of Eileen Callely, Marilyn Case, Colin Jenkins, Ann Miller and Ian Moody agreed to continue publishing a village magazine. They changed the design to an A4 format and had the journal printed professionally. The first 400 copies rolled off the presses and were distributed in October 1993. Now a quarter of a century later with a \u2018New Team\u2019, plus one old stager, we are printing over 700 copies of our 25th Christmas edition.<\/p>\n

It is thanks to all of you out there who supply the many various interesting items of text each month, and our 39 dedicated distributors, that the magazine has survived these many years to arrive on your doorstep at the start of each month.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u2018The Team\u2019 (see below) wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very article productive New Year.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
