KIRKBY LONSDALE CHORAL SOCIETY

reminds

new members and old friends that rehearsals begin on

Thursday 9 September at 7.15 for 7.30 pm in the Queen Elizabeth School.

(Please ring Rosie on 71068 for directions)

We shall start work on one of Vivialdi’s most stunning masterpieces: the Gloria, a work of rich contrasts and mood opposites - joyful/dark, playful/majestic, personal/universal- greatly loved for these almost theatrical qualities.

Later there will be carols from the Oxford Book, possibly the most famous and complete of all carol collections, greatly respected for being edited by Ralph Vaughan Williams and friends.

The Harley Davidson Riders Club of Great Britain will once again hold its annual rally at Kirkby Lonsdale Rugby Club grounds on the weekend beginning 9th July.  This year it will be an International Rally and riders from many other countries are expected.

Just as they did last year the organisers of the Rally wish to extend a warm invitation to local people and visitors to Kirkby Lonsdale to come and meet them in the Market Square on Saturday 10th July from 10am. There will be a display of many gleaming Harley Davidson machines in the square until 4pm. Various models both modern and veteranwill be on display. The Harley riders will be delighted to meet you and talk to you about their machines and answer any questions you may have.

Also on Saturday afternoon at 2pm there will be a video presentation in St Mary's Church which documents the history of the club to the present day. It will explain what the club is about and about the charity work the club is involved in raising money for deserving causes.
