It’s been a busy few weeks at Shrewsbury Morris! We ran two open evenings in January and were delighted to welcome quite a few newcomers, despite the weather. We had great support from Radio Shropshire who ran several interviews with team members and newcomers in January too.

Several of the people who came along to see what we are all about enjoyed themselves so much that they came back! Last week’s practice was so well attended we were able to split up into three groups and get some really intensive practice in and our string section in the band has increased by 2 people.

We are filling up our spring/summer programme, so if you want to book us for anything get in quick! You can email us here or Tweet us at @shrewsmorris

In team social news we are all looking forward to our annual walking weekend, this year in beautiful Snowdonia at Bryn Gwynant.

And our big focus for the year is hosting the Morris Federation AGM. Plans are well advanced and we are hoping to fill Shrewsbury with Morris sides on September 28th 2013. Watch out for more updates soon!

If you want to come along and join in, we rehearse on Thursday nights in Sundorne School, Shrewsbury at 8pm – come along one evening and see what we’re all about.
