News & Events – Kelsey Hall

06.10.18 Update on facilities available as a result of a flooding incident.
We are delighted to tell you that, barring a few minor finishing touches, the ladies and disabled toilet areas are both now functioning normally and much improved.In the ladies toilet, as well as new flooring there are new cubicles, toilets and hand-wash basin. There is also a new super-speedy hand-dryer which we hope all the ladies will be impressed with; it is a little noisier than the last one but that is because it will dry your hands in 8 to 10 seconds!!!! Yes, really.Please be careful to watch your step on the area of flooring to the left of the main entrance, which is devoid of parquet. The parquet will be re-laid over half-term week beginning 22^nd October, so the hall will be closed to all users that week.
The pre-school will continue to operate from the small hall until half-term.Thank you, once again, for your continued patience and understanding. The end is in sight!
The hall will look fabulous when it is all finished and then we will celebrate – PLEASE SEE THE LISTING BELOW FOR SUNDAY 28TH OCTOBER! KHMC

Ifold Social @ Kelsey Hall |LAST FRIDAY OF EVERY MONTH | 7.00pm to 10.00pm | Large Hall
The September social evening was much enjoyed by all those who attended and the communal food table was a great success.
The date of October social evening occurs at the end of the week-long closure of the hall for the parquet floor refurbishment so it is uncertain whether this will go ahead. Keep an eye on the News & Events page for an update nearer the time.The dedicated email address is ifoldsocial@kelseyhall.org.uk.

INDOOR BOWLS – FREE TASTER SESSION !
Indoor Bowls is played at Kelsey Hall every Monday and Wednesday afternoon from September to May.
If you fancy having a free taster session please contact Jo Owen.

“BOWLS IS FOR OLD PEOPLE? A common misconception. It’s true that older people can happily play bowls no matter what the level of fitness, but it is also a game that people of any age can play.
Ifold is blessed with facilities that perfectly suit the game of Short Mat Bowls, although Kelsey Large-Hall accepts a longer mat than the usual Short Mat, resulting in a unique form of Long Short Mat.
This year we intend running open sessions where we warmly invite anybody from Ifold and the surrounding parishes to come and have a go, see if it’s right for you.
You are assured of a warm welcome, no special equipment needed as we will have bowls in various sizes and weights available. We currently have a well balanced group of girls and boys and help will be given on what to do, but be assured that the process is simple. Learning will be without embarrassment, each of our existing players has been at the beginners stage and knows only too well how daunting it initially feels. Please come along whether you are a complete novice or have some experience. Remember this is a social event as much as a chance to learn a new skill, a chance to meet new diverse, friendly people. We currently meet on Mondays and Wednesdays between 2.00pm and 5.00pm.
It is not a true club in the accepted sense, we do not have membership fees. We collect a small amount, around £3 from each person on the day(s) they are playing, just to cover hall hire charges, and tea and biscuits at mid game break. Here we catch up on all local gossip and enjoy a great social gathering. The game lasts 3 hours, which sounds a long time but it just flies by. It’s gently competitive and there’s no pressure to play other than what you feel comfortable with or your timetable allows.
Come and give it a try you may be pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it can be.”
