We have been quite active during the autumn and winter. We sang at the Festival of Remembrance at Bere Ferrers in November and we have done a number of school visits, two more retirement home visits (with excellent RNLI fundraising), a private party and the Wassailing evening in Bere Ferrers. A planned session at Cotehele at Christmas had to be cancelled due to the weather as did a planned visit to the Cargreen Yacht Club Regatta due to the mourning period for the late Queen.
We suffered a great loss with the passing of Robin who was a founding member of the Tars. We are very fortunate that Jane continues to be a major part of the Tars to organise us and keep us in order!
Plans are shaping up well for 2023 with the next event being a singalong event in the Olde Plough on 17 February. More school visits and events are in the pipeline along with visits to Shanty Festivals at Cockwood Harbour and of course Falmouth.
We continue to have practice sessions most Wednesdays at either the Bere Ferrers Social Club and the Stannary Arms in Tavistock. Everybody is welcome to come along and listen any time.
