November 2005

This month's Snippets comes to you courtesy of The Church Cafe the home of heavenly food and divine coffee where they have just celebrated their 2nd birthday and a very successful two years it has been. 98% of the food is made on the property and their apricot and date scones are to die for! Their out catering service has been very successful and if you have a function coming up call in for a quote. The Cafe's opening hours are from 8a.m. till 4ish seven days a week and Sharon and her angels will be delighted to see you! Phone 329-3150.

This month's events are

MELBOURNE CUP DAY at the Sanson Club to which all residents are invited. This is on Tuesday 1st November and the fun starts with refreshments at 2 p.m. Wear your glad rags as there is a prize for the best dressed. Sweepstakes are $2 and $5 so if, like me you only have a bet on THE CUP! this is the day!

The SANSON TRAMWAY PLAQUE will be unveiled at 1p.m. onTuesday 29th November by the Mayor Mr. Ian McKelvie. This is on the corner of Philips St and the State Highway and Peter Sparrow who was concerned that the existence of the tramway would just fade into oblivion will be in attendance. This will be the 60th Anniversary of the last running of the tram on November 29th 1945. We had a nil response from residents about memorabilia. Surely someone out there has photos of the engine or the water tower that stood next to Harris Bros. yard until the early seventies or anything else pertainng to the tramway. All welcome on this memorable occasion!

MOVING ON!

We are going to miss Mrs. Joan Richards when she moves to Palmerston North later this month. Joan, we wish you well and I look forward to visiting you in your new home.

SANSON COMMUNITY COMMITTEE

Those of us who have been associated with Barbara Bramwell on the Community Committee were sorry to hear of her passing. Barbara was our liaison Councillor with the Manawatu District Council for several years and was a great help to us with her wide knowledge and experience.

The next meeting of the committee will be held in the Library on Wednesday 23rd November at 7 30 p.m.

SANSON COMMUNITY LIBRARY

Still quite a few books outstanding from our last Feilding selection. Our volunteers would appreciate them being returned without us having to chase you up!

We are expecting to get the computer for the Library in the New Year by which time we should have Broadband installed in our telephone exchange. I had a ring around and managed to find twenty people as requested by Telecom who are interested in the fast connection and enough waves have been made to make this a happening.
