GADMAG
Grosmont and District Multi-activities Group
GADMAG was set up in 1988 to fill the gap left when the primary school closed that year.
The school had been a focal point for the village, offering activities and social involvement and members of the original group were keen to maintain the level of village activity that had been provided by the school before its closure.
Almost 21 years later, GADMAG organises a wide range of events throughout the year, from the ever-popular May Day Breakfast to welcome the summer and on to a spectacular Bonfire Night display, with several special dinner dates in between, including the Apple Pie Supper in the autumn. Events are published on the website, and posters are put up on the Town Hall notice board and in the Angel.
We are currently involved in organising Grosmont Village Day, planned for 10th July 2010. This will involve all of the village groups, and will be a full day and evening of stalls, games and events. There will be a parade down through the village with the theme of the Pied Piper, as well as displays, music and food. Extra help would be most welcome, so please contact GADMAG if you would like to get involved, or simply turn up at the next GADMAG meeting in the Angel, the date of which will be on our events page.
The group is non-profit-making and self-funding, with some events organised to subsidise others.
Everyone is welcome at GADMAG’s regular meetings in The Angel Inn. Though the GADMAG calendar has a range of events that are both regular and expected, new ideas and new members are always welcome. Dates of forthcoming meetings are published on our events page, and minutes of the meetings are published on the web page.
The group elects a committee every year at the AGM. See the details page for the current GADMAG contact.
