DDARA CHAIR’S REPORT
Welcome to the summer
newsletter 2005.
As most people will be aware Ron White has finally managed to persuade
someone else to take over as Chair of the DDARA – me! Luckily for
us though he has agreed to stay on as vice chair and will continue to
play an active role. John Boryer has also changed role from Treasurer
to Secretary.
Despite the summer holidays members of the residents association are
still busy organising trips out for young people and children.
We are also planning a Health and Well Being event to be run at the
school on September 17th, which will bring people in from various
organisations who will advise and offer information.
Look out for information on further computer courses and other projects
in the pipeline.
We will be creating an events diary in the Autumn Newsletter, any
contributions are welcome.
This will be a time of change for the Residents Association as Ron
takes more of a back seat and we need all the support we can get to be
able to continue the work we already do and to create new ventures.
If you feel you have any spare time or have ideas about what you would
like to see in Netherfield please come along to our next committee
meeting on Tuesday September 13th at 7.30pm at Netherfield School or
speak to one of our committee members about what you could do to help
with events like the fun day or working with a particular group within
the village.
Netherfield Fun Day—Once again we picked one of the worst days weather
wise for the fun day (It wasn’t quite as wet as last year). The event
brought together lots of ‘Netherfielders’ both during the day and in
the evening. With lots of hard work from Mandy and her crew, it was one
of those days that remind people of why we like to live in a village.
As part of our Fun Day money was collected to give Ron and Sylvia a
voucher for a well-earned holiday, to show our appreciation for all
their hard work and support over many years.
Have a great summer,
Joyce Rook
