Mylander - November to January 2023 - Issue 93

Council Reports Summer Su August 29th 12-4pm A g Myland Community Council Fetete 2022 A Steering Committee was formed, mostly led by Peter, and this group set about the legal requirements for forming a Parish Council. This came into being in 1999, after overcoming obstacles needlessly interposed by the Borough Council. From the outset, meetings were usually attended by a resident of a particularly rude and accusatory disposition. Peter was occasionally irritated by this poor behaviour, but somehow he always remained calm and pleasant. He and Frances retired to Groton in Suffolk where they lived together for fifteen years. He and Frances were soul-mates and this contributed to the well-lived life of a very happy man. Patrick Mills Myland Summer Fete On Monday 29th August many of you came along to our annual summer fete, which again was a huge success. We saw more residents come and support us than ever before so thank you. We are very grateful to Cllr Marina de Smith for her fabulous organisational skills, our Clerk and all those Councillors who helped on the day. We were blessed with great weather and entertainment was provided during the afternoon by the Myland Singers, The Colne Endeavour band and the Hospital Radio team. The Myland Community Council stall was manned by a number of councillors during the day and it was encouraging to talk to residents, help them with their questions and to see that we can make an positive impact on our community. We are delighted to say we have raised around £3000 and the businesses who supported us on the day did a roaring trade. 14
