The 2020 Hall AGM meeting will take place on Thursday, 30th April 2020 in the second hall at 7.30pm.
All officer posts need to be elected at the AGM, but Derek and Jane Rees have decided to stand down from their Chair and Secretary roles this year, meaning that those posts will definitely be vacant..
Derek has kindly offered to remain as Treasurer to provide continuity. If you are interested and would like to discuss what is required for the Chair and Secretary posts then please contact Derek on 01258 857252.

There is now an email listing which you can sign up to to stay in touch with the Hall. It will not be passed on to any other organisation and will only be used to tell you about news and events at the Hall. If you want to sign up, please send an emai to: sturhallemaillist@gmail.com .

New partition installed between large and smaller halls. Many thanks to the CoOp and people who shop at the Sturminster Marshall CoOp for grants that funded this. If you are booking both halls you need to arrange for someone to open the partition.

This weekend’s Cream Tea at the Old School (next to Red Lion) is in aid of the Memorial Hall, from 2:30 - 5:30pm. Please would you spread the word to family and friends and come along for refreshments.
