Book Sale
A community
event entitled ‘A Hythe of Activity’ organised for the village centre at
the end of May was unfortunately the victim of unseasonal persistent rain
and high winds. Hythe & District Rotary Club had planned to participate
by running a secondhand bookstall and information stand in Hythe High
Street, but after stoically standing their ground and devising a variety of
ways to try and keep the books dry, club members decided to admit defeat
and packed up at midday.
It was a
shame, after all the effort put in by Hythe Parish Development Officer
Helen Owers, HANDY Trust Youth Worker Candy Huxham, and a team of hard
working local youngsters, that the event had to be curtailed. It
would have been an excellent opportunity for local organisations and
charities to showcase what they do, to raise funds and to attract new
members. Despite getting so wet and cold on this occasion, members of Hythe
& District Rotary Club would be pleased to take part in any future
similar event.
