It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Edwin Cleave, a long standing member of Christow SMBC.

Edwin leaves a very big space on our club nights, but still fills our hearts with fond memories.

Our condolences go out to Edwin's friends and family.

Edwin's funeral is to be held at 11am on December 30th at Christow church.

Rest in peace, Edwin.

Christmas Party 2022!!!!!

There will be much merriment and all-round good fun on December 21st when Christow SMBC will hold its Christmas Club Night.

Trevor, who is Head Elf, has asked that any attendees on the evening contribute some food to help with the buffet! No alcohol please...... and no mistletoe!!

Please let the head elf know what you intend on contributing to avoid us being overloaded with sausage rolls!

Mat fees are waived for the evening and the head elf will no doubt have some inventive games in mind...... all based around short mat bowls!

The fun kicks off at 7pm, as usual, so please be there from 6:30pm to help set up the short mat grotto!

Any volunteers for playing Father Christmas?
