Community Sing-a-Longs
Community Singalongs are a new activity for residents of Edwinstowe Village and Ollerton Town starting on Monday April 8th in local community centres.
The self-entertainment (there will be a Compere) is FREE and the admission price of £1 per person covers light refreshments.
Nobody attending needs to be able to read music. The music and the song-sheets will be provided. The fun comes from singing along with music from popular artists and from the musicals.
The new activity in Edwinstowe & Ollerton is supported by Newark & Sherwood District Council who are grant-aiding the costs of the music licence and insurance and providing the venues. The organisers are thankful for their assistance.
The programme for April is:
Edwinstowe:
Mon 8th & 22nd Apr – Lynds close Community centre, off East Lane, NG21 9RB
Doors open 4.15pm and close 5.45pm
Proceed along Lynds Close and the Community centre will be found on the left side of the close.
Ollerton:
Mon 8th & 22nd Apr– Ambleside Community centre , Yew Tree Rd, NG22 9UR
Doors open 7pm & close 8.30pm
Ambleside is located near St Paulinus Church on Yew Tree Rd at the junction with Ambleside at NG22 9UR.
Organiser Kevin Mulloy wants local residents to enjoy the singalong; and the focus will always be on coming along and singing and enjoying themselves.
‘’The age-range we are aiming at is 18 to 99 yrs;’’ says Kevin; ‘’but children at least 10 years old can be brought along, as long as a parent or guardian brings them and supervises them throughout their time in the community centre.’’
“Anyone needing a carer is welcome to attend with their carer (who must be present throughout)…the carer will be admitted at nil cost.’’
The Singalongs in April are expected to include songs from ABBA, Celine Dion, Elvis, Neil Diamond, Rod Stewart & Roy Orbison etc…
