PRESIDENT Sue Grimsted welcomed members and guest Maria Davis to the June meeting.

The Stoke Gifford Facebook page is now up and running, thank you Alison.

The cake stall that we held at the Stoke Gifford fete on Bank Holiday Monday was a great success and the cakes and jams were soon sold out.

It was a brilliant day and we raised £128. Sue thanked all the bakers and helpers for their hard work.

We had a lovely sunny day for our trip to Wells and everyone agreed it was a great day out.

The next outing will be the group trip to Oxford on July10.

The WI AGM will be held at the Winter Gardens Pavillion in Weston-super-Mare on September 19, where there will be two speakers. Tickets are available to purchase.

Our speaker for the evening was local bee keeper Tim Hewer, who gave an interesting talk on the lives of bees. Who knew their lives were so complicated!

The next meeting will be our annual birthday event on the July 4. We will have a red white and blue theme and will have two ladies demonstrating zumba to which we are all invited to participate. This will be followed by an American supper.
