95th Anniversary Celebrations
Bitteswell WI held their first meeting in December 1922 and will be celebrating their 95th anniversary this year, 2017/2018.
20th January 2018 - we will be holding our Anniversary dinner at Lutterworth Golf Club with 42 members and guests.
The evening was very enjoyable with good company, delicious food and a look back over the years. The WI scrap books gave an interesting insight into how the WI has evolved through the years. Many of our members loved reminiscing about past members, some sadly no longer with us, fund raising events they had done, visits, Group outings, garden parties enjoyed and seeing photographs of themselves in younger days. We have a lot to live up to.

Teddies for Tragedy - as one of our goals for this year members are knitting 95 teddies for the Rotary appeal. Total currently stands at 57 so we must keep knitting! Here's just a few.
March 18 - We have been busy, busy, busy and the total currently stands at 85.
