This years Rockley Rally was hosted by Chapeltown WI and held at Grenoside Community Centre. Over 20 Thorpe Hesley members and friends enjoyed a really good afternoon.
After a welcome by Kath Gray, President of Chapeltown WI, our President
Mary took to the stage to announce the awarding of an MBE in the Queens Birthday Honours list to
'Peggy' who then received a well deserved round of applause from all the WI members of the Rockley group.

We then enjoyed an excellent presentation from Howard Middleton about his time on 'Great British Bake Off' and the impact on his life since followed by a 'sing-a-long' of 'golden oldies' by local entertainer Susan St-Nicholas.

We then had the chance to visit the wonderful stalls on offer from our own stall of household products .... where we soon sold out ......
........ to Wentworth's wonderful cake stall
Sybil treating her friends to cup cakes
........ to Chapeltowns' Raffle and Treasure Hunt.
Howard then joined us for a really lovely ploughman's lunch plus tea and cake (of course!) It was our turn to entertain him before he judged the Victoria Sandwich Cake Competition.
Ingrid House from Wath WI won 'best' cake
A fantastic afternoon - well done Chapeltown WI.
