Hi
One of the events planned for North Luffenham’s Village Day next Saturday is a Frying Pan rounders competition, being organised by our own Rounders RingMaster, Judy Cade
Obviously this is an event that requires frying pans
If you have an old frying pan that you would be happy to lend to Judy for the day, could you bring it along to the Oval on Saturday for Judy

Many thanks from the Cricket Club to everyone, both members and non members, who helped out on the “Ground Force” clean up of the Pavilion. It was a great demonstration of community spirit.
The building is looking much better for a Jetwash, repaired guttering and roof and a cleaned and repainted interior.
There are still some details to finish off, and the new carpets that have been ordered need to be fitted.
Once all the work is completed, the pavilion will once again be fit for hosting the cricket team, and also any other village community events who wish to utilise the building
For those of you who have thought recently, “h’mm the Pavilion is looking a bit grubby” or have mentioned things could do with a tidy up, now is your chance to help to make a difference.
The Cricket Club have obtained sponsorship for materials from Natwest, & is undertaking a “Get Stuck In” weekend from Friday 1st April to Sunday 3rd April. Obviously “Many Hands Make Light Work” and so we would welcome help from anyone who would be willing to assist in any way (for any period of time over the weekend) to get as much done as possible.
The intention is to spruce up the pavilion with a clean up and do some general maintenance – painting and repairs etc to make the pavilion and the area surrounding it a more pleasant place to be.
The pavilion is a village facility, able to be used by various different organisations within the village, and a clean up will make it a more welcoming space for anyone who wants to use it
If you can help out, please contact 07787557511 for further details and we look forward to seeing you over the weekend.
Jason from the Fox is planning to celebrate the 1st birthday of the opening of the revitalised Fox Pub on Easter Sunday, 27th March, from 8pm onwards with live music from Irene Rae
In preparation for the 2016 Cricket season, the Cricket Club will be holding a Meet and Greet social evening at 8pm on Thursday 25th Feb at the Fox.
Anyone who is interested in playing for, or supporting, the Club is most welcome to attend.
The club will be entering a Senior team in the Tuesday evening Borough League, along with Friendly games and participation in the Junior Leagues
Look forward to seeing you there
The Parish Council is reviewing the play equipment on the Oval prior to investing in some new items for children from the village to use and enjoy.
We’d like to involve both children and parents in the review and development so if you are interested in giving us your views then please contact Parish Councillor Steve Marson on steve.marson@halfords.co.uk.

Our current Problem Solving Plans are tackling burglary related crime in Ketton and also hare coursing along the corridor villages along the A47.
There has been an increase in reports of hare coursing in the past 2 weeks around the Wing to Glaston area and the Barrowden to Seaton area.
We are carrying out high visibility patrols in all the above locations to target offenders & liaising with neighbouring forces. Currently there is a matrix warning sign on Luffenham road, Ketton warning motorists of police operations in the area.
As you can see from the above crime for the last month, there have been 4 shed breaks. Please review your home security and if you need any advice, please feel free to contact me.
Remember we currently sell padlock alarms for £8.50, which would be ideal for a shed.
Regards
Paul Le Pla
