Introduction to poetry
Are you interested in poetry but never had the opportunity to take it further? If so, this group is for you. Each session will have a short talk (ten minutes or so) about a poet, with examples of her/his work. Then members of the group will have the opportunity to read one or two poems that they like. We will then talk about and respond to what we have heard over a cup of tea/coffee and biscuits. The aim is to enjoy the poems; no doubt there will be some old favourites and some new discoveries.
This group will take place in Letham. If you like the sound of it, please register your interest by clicking on Introduction to Poetry Enquiry.

Acoustic Music Makers Group
This group initially aims to unite those who play an acoustic guitar at any level. There may be scope to expand membership to any acoustic instrument, should there be sufficient demand.
The group also aims to enable members to practise together, to help improve technique, to learn new genres and to enjoy making music.
A venue, available days and times, etc, can all be discussed at an initial social meeting.
If you have any thoughts, or are interested in such a group please contact Steve McLaren using the Acoustic Music Makers Enquiry.

Even Battier Table Tennis Group
This will be a group where folk play table tennis for fun. It’s the chance to come along and enjoy some social table tennis whilst helping to keep your brain and body in trim! Your skill level and experience at table tennis doesn’t matter.
The current ‘Totally Bats’ group meets on a Friday from 2 til 4 pm in the Wilkie Hall Pitlessie where there is a kitchen for tea and biscuit breaks and toilets when required. There are two table tennis tables and bats etc can be supplied. A regular day and time will be agreed between group members once ‘Even Battier’ is up and running – it could potentially also be on Fridays between 12 and 2 pm but this can be decided by the group.
If you are interested in joining the group, please contact David Fordyce-Wright using the Even Battier Table Tennis Enquiry.
