FEATURE EVENTS
++++++
THU JAN 26 & THU FEB 9 (THEN EVERY SECOND & FOURTH THURSDAY OF EACH MONTH) - T@THEGREEN:
Join Us For A Cuppa & A Chat - Free Community Event, All Welcome
The fantastic community-focused fixture that is T@TheGreen continues into 2023, having passed its first 100 sessions late last year.

Our community get-together continues between 10am and 12noon on every second and fourth Thursday morning of each month.

Completely free to attend and personally hosted, everyone in the local community is welcome to pop by or stay for the whole two hours; whichever is most appealing.

Have a chat with other folk from around the village and surrounding areas, or simply sit back, relax and take in the calming view across The Green from our bright and airy clubhouse facility - while enjoying a cup of tea or coffee and some light refreshments.

FRIDAY SOCIAL - FRI FEB 3, 8pm: Live Music with John Knowles duo 'MJs 60s Gold'
Returning to LGCC by popular demand is singer-songwriter John Knowles, for another evening of entertainment for LGCC members and their guests.

With John on acoustic guitar, he'll be joined this time by sidekick Micky on bass to play as 'MJ 60s Gold'.

They'll play a wide variety of numbers from the 60s genre and beyond, something to suit all tastes.

We look forward to seeing you at The Green for another free evening's live music.

++++++
SUN FEB 5: Monthly Quiz Night, 7.45pm start
After a short break over the festive season, LGCC's Monthly Quiz Night is back in its traditional slot: the first Sunday of the calendar month.

Teams can be made up of any number you'd like to bring, with the entry fee of £2 per person divided between the top performers.

It's a very fun, informal evening, nothing too heavy - but enough to get you thinking. New players are always very welcome, whether forming a full team or simply coming along and joining in with others.

There's also a Spot Prize or two along the way, with the bar open from around 7.00pm.

Quizmaster for February is Mike Darke.

TUE FEB 7 - CHRIS LAWRANCE'S BANJO BASH: First Tuesday of every month; Bar 8.00pm, Music 8.30pm
Enjoy the delights of music played in the traditional & bluegrass way by Chris Lawrance and his collection of musical maestros from around the local area.

Some of the finest fiddlers and string pluckers in the region descend on The Green for an old-time music session once a month - and it's always worth a listen.

The gang usually get going from around 8.30pm at the latest. Come along and have a drink while you sit back and enjoy the toe-tapping sounds.
