Coningsby, Tattershall & District History Society

Venue:

New Methodist Church
Silver Street
Coningsby

The Society was established back in 1951, so this is our Diamond Anniversary year! Currently we have almost 40 members, so there is plenty of room for more.

We meet on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 7.30pm, from September to May, at the New Methodist Church in Silver Street, Coningsby and we also have two outings, in June and July. In December we hold our Christmas party and our annual dinner is in March. Our year commences with our AGM in September.

We are a friendly, informal group and our aim is to learn more about matters of – mostly, but not exclusively – local historical interest in a relaxed and social setting. To this end we have speakers on a wide range of subject.

New members are most welcome and we hope the current annual subscription of £6 will not break the bank. Should anyone wish to come along and sample what we are about, they are very welcome to visit, listen to our speaker for the evening and afterwards enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits and take the opportunity to chat with people, all for £1.50. The evening usually winds up at around at 9.30pm.

Anyone interested in joining us, or requiring any further information, should telephone the Secretary, Mike Fidell, on 01526 354954 or, of course, simply come along on the evening (please bear in mind that our annual dinner is scheduled for 9th March).

We look forward to seeing you and assure you of a warm welcome.

John Stevens
Chairman

A large, very comfortable seating area, a games room and television room provide areas to suit all kinds of socialising.

It is a members club, however there are reduced rates for summer visitors and you are welcome to come and have a drink, and see what a pleasant environment it is. You can be signed in by a member for £1.00. The steward and stewardess will make you feel welcome and give you the paperwork if you decide to join us.

About Rotary and our club

Rotary is the ultimate service club with 35,000 clubs and 1.2 million members worldwide. In Great Britain there are 1700 clubs with 40,000 Rotarians.

Founded in 1988 and twinned with the Rotary Club of Grandvilliers in Northern France, our club is part of District 1070 comprising around 80 clubs in the East Midlands. The Woodhall club draws members from Tattershall, Coningsby and surrounding villages as well as Woodhall Spa itself and currently has around 40 members.

Regular meetings

At our regular Monday meetings we enjoy a good meal in the comfortable surroundings of The Dower House Hotel. We have a mixture of visiting speakers and presentations, business sessions, social events and outside visits. There is no requirement to attend every meeting and most Rotarians fit their Rotary activities around their personal, business and family lives. Nevertheless, being involved in the Club’s activities is important – that’s how we make a difference and build friendships.

Our major projects include organising the annual Woodhall Spa Christmas Fayre as well as an annual Charity Golf Day attracting players from all over the country. These help us to fund our charitable activities.

Wapentake Magazine

This community magazine carries a monthly report of our activities. Take a look and if you’re interested in joining us or just finding out a bit more about what we do, visit our website: www.WoodhallSpaRotary.co.uk or get in touch with any Rotarian.

Woodhall Spa and District Gardeners Association

Venue:

Coronation Hall
Spa Road
Woodhall Spa
LN10

The earliest record of the Association is February 1949 when we believe the Woodhall Spa Horticultural Society was formed.  The Association continued until 25th September 1961 when they amalgamated with the Flower Show, and the Woodhall Spa & District Gardeners' Association was formed.

The annual subscription at that time was three shillings and sixpence and today stands at just £5.00 (not bad considering inflation since 1961 is just under 2000%!!)

In 1962, the annual show was held in a marquee in Jubilee Park and in 1963 they started having regular lectures.  The meeting place for these was the Women's Conservative Club on The Broadway.  Sadly, the building burnt down and is now the site where McColl's Newspaper shop stands.

During this time the Club raised revenue by holding coffee mornings, jumble sales and bingo.

Outings were organised, but these tended to be short local affairs.

In 1988, the Club became affiliated to the Royal Horticultural Society.

In 1990, the Club moved its meetings into St Peters Church Hall and in September 2021, the Club moved to Coronation Hall.

The Club is thriving and still serving Woodhall Spa Gardeners.  However, we now have members from several other local towns and villages.

We meet for lunch with a speaker on the last Wednesday of the month at 12:00noon and look forward to welcoming new members. We have a three course lunch, followed by a presentation. This is usually by an outside speaker on many and varied subjects

‘PROBUS’ is an abbreviation of the words PROfession and BUSiness; however, the Club is not restricted to these two groups and attracts members from a varied background. Probus provides an opportunity to meet with like-minded people who appreciate similar interests, and who enjoy the camaraderie that belonging to this organisation brings. The Club promotes friendship and fellowship, while remaining very relaxed, non-political and non-sectarian.

We are a friendly organisation, welcoming individuals from Woodhall and the surrounding area. Formed in 2009 with 38 members, we have steadily grown to nearly 300 members today, limited only by the seating capacity of our usual monthly venue, Coronation Hall.

The u3a movement is a unique and exciting organisation which provides, with over 1000 individual u3a's throughout the country, the opportunity for retired and semi-retired people from all backgrounds. We come together to socialise and pursue creative interests in a friendly and informal environment. Members draw upon their knowledge and experience to teach and learn from each other.

It's all voluntary, run by informal activity groups covering a wide range of different subjects. There are no formal qualifications or exams to pass. There is no lower age limit, the only requirement is that you are no longer in full time employment.
