Spring is the time that beetles start to flourish so St George’s Church is holding a Beetle Drive social evening on Friday, March 6th, from 6pm.
A Beetle Drive involves tables with players, each of whom takes turns to roll a die to try to collect parts of a beetle, which are either pre-drawn or which players draw themselves. To start collecting each player must roll a six which represents the beetle’s body. After that they may start adding parts with each number on the die representing a part of the body. Once a player has a complete beetle they shout ‘beetle’ and the game stops. The person on each table with the most nearly complete beetle moves to a table clockwise round the room while the player who has collected the fewest parts moves anti-clockwise and the game begins again. It is suitable for all ages and is a good way to meet new people.
The Beetle Drive will be followed by supper which can be ordered ahead of time from a selection served by a fish and chip shop or you can bring their own.
Tickets (without food) are £5 or £2.50 for children. Orders and payment will be needed by March 1. Details are available from Kris Lawrence.
We’ve not seen much of the snow, but you can still create a snowman or two at our Snowman Drive at St George’s on Saturday, 24th February at 5.30pm.
This is a seasonal variation on a beetle drive and is a fun way to cheer up a dark winter evening. Create your snowman by rolling a die, then move move from table to table.
It’s £5 to enter, £2.50 children. Bring your own snacks and drinks. If you want a fish and chip supper this will be available for £10 but you must book ahead for this. Please also let us know if you are coming even if you don’t want supper as this will help us judge numbers. To book and/or order food, contact Kris by Wednesday, 21st February: warden.stgeorges@badshotleaandhale.org
