Young Ringers' Outing to Teign Valley.
Saturday 25 April 2009

A group of 11 keen young ringers from Dawlish, Exeter St Marks, Colyton, Northleigh, Sidmouth and Broadhembury set off to the Teign valley for a morning’s ringing. It started with an hour’s ringing at Doddiscombsleigh and then on to Trusham.

The youngsters rang rounds, call changes, Grandsire doubles, Plain Bob doubles and Cambridge. Some young ringers took the opportunity to practice calling call changes.

Many thanks to the Mums and especially our adult helpers Fiona, Nigel, Martin, Anne and Elizabeth who supported the ringing and provided lots of help and encouragement. The outing had two non ringers travelling with the party, Daisy and Mia, two dogs which added to the fun!

After a busy morning most of the party then went to The Old Coaching House Chudleigh for a very nice lunch where the fun continued!

It is fabulous to see the young people who are the future of ringing progressing and having fun together. Many thanks to Lynne Hughes for arranging an excellent morning.
