A programme of events through the year are proposed to celebrate this very special anniversary and they are featured on the front page. At the same time the front page sends out an alert which could see a change in how the library operates meaning the end of the highly qualified librarians and the creation of a community model run by volunteers.
Photographs from Fun Night can be found on page 11 along with a report on the event which attracted record numbers to the village. Over a thousand people enjoyed a mild evening with plenty of attractions and a lovely community atmosphere. More views on flooding can be found on page 12 following the report by Steve Payne in the December/January issue. Undoubtedly this issue will run, and run. George Parker is the resident featured in Local Lives on page 13. Who knew that he was a scratch golfer and even considered turning professional? Plans to safeguard the green open space between Kennet and Cherwell are updated on page 23 and there's a photograph showing local residents who gave their support. Wye Valley School's graduation award winners are featured on page 25. On page 27 you can read about a very ordinary cupboard in Orchard House which became a work of art, thanks to the skills of former postman turned painter Dave Masson. Lots more to read and photos galore on the back page make the first issue of the Community Association's "Golden Year" one to remember. Click here to open Volume 48 Issue 1.

On the front page of the February/March issue are photographs celebrating the success of those who formed the Community Association back in 1962. One shows the building which came as a result of hard work, fund raising and great enthusiasm while the other shows today's modern extended building complete with solar roof panels. Over half a century the same determined spirit has seen the Community Association keep pace with the demands of constantly changing rules and regulations while continuing to provide local people with a good place to meet, enjoy drama and music as well as providing space for clubs and activities to take place regularly.
