Busy year in store for Magnet Women’s Group

Now in their new venue of the Meeting Place in Poyntzpass, the group has more space, facilities and comfort.

December brought their annual bus trip to Dublin which was very successful and enjoyed by all who came along.

Near to Christmas came their annual party which was a real success. Ginty Anderson and her troop of Scottish dancers added the Highland fling to the party washed down by mulled wine and mince pies. Of course many a lady’s foot was in step with the proceedings as the ladies danced to the rhythm of the misty Highland tone.

Every Monday evening at 7.45pm the set dancing class provides a great opportunity for ladies. Learn new steps and at the same time enjoy the benefit of exercise so please do come along.

Beginning on Wednesday, January 16, at 7.30pm and every Wednesday thereafter the floral art class take place. Priced at £5 per class, The classes are hosted by Moira Cairns.

From simple table dressing to church or wedding presentations in floral art, come along and broaden your craft horizons.
