The Friday Knights

 
 

Who We Are

The Friday Knights is the St John’s men’s group who meeting on the second Friday of every month bar August.

The group was set up by some of the male congregation around 20 years ago and has an active membership of circa 60

Our events are split between nights in the Church Hall, The Tamberlin Room and evenings out.

Subs are £12 p.a. with a voluntary “top up” of £8 which we pay over to our chosen charity (Charitable donations in 2008 totalled nearly £3,000)

We have a widespread age group, so no one is too old or too young.

We publish a monthly newsletter with details of the various events which are well attended and always fun and sometime even educational !

If anyone is interested in joining they can phone anyone on the committee (numbers on the newsletter) or see one of the male church wardens on a Sunday for details (there are usually a supply of newsletters at the back of the church).

The Next Event...

A Croydon Walk

With warm thanks to Bernard Maguire who has organised the whole event; on 10th September we will have a guided walk round the older parts of Croydon. Bernard will lead the walk which will commence at 7.15 sharp. Bernard has negotiated our use of an upstairs room at the Spread Eagle pub on Katherine Street where we can meet before the walk so please meet there. The Spread Eagle is a Fullers pub and is situated next door to the Library / Clocktower complex.

Following the walk, for which Bernard has done extensive research, we will return to the Spread Eagle for further refreshments including sandwiches. The walk is free but we will charge modestly for the food.  The price will be roughly £3 but we will confirm on the night.

Look forward to seeing you at the Spread Eagle before 7.15, and thanks to Bernard for all his sterling preparation. If you are running late on the evening and want to find out where we have got to, call me on 07920 555375 and I'll tell you.
