A selection of art by local artists will be auctioned by Rodney Tennant at the charity auction at Tennants in Leyburn on Thursday, September 17. And there will be some very entertaining music thanks to Rick Dickerlous and the Outrage supported by Lil and the Lillettes!The proceeds from the auction will go to the UK charity, Friends of Govi, which helps blind and visually impaired children in the Gambia.A magnificent collage by Janet Rawlins will be auctioned and the other artists who have donated pictures include Judith Bromley, Piers Browne, Winifred Hodge, Roger Lofts, Moira Metcalfe, Nancy Murgatroyd and Jo Stockdale. All the art will be on show at Tennants from September 2, with much it already on view at www.friendsofgovi.org.uk. The evening will start with canapes and wine at 5pm and the gig with Rick Dickerlous (aka Rod Baxter of Leyburn) and his friends will begin at 5.30pm. This will not only include Rod’s own composition Sweet Jane which won such acclaim at this year’s Wensleydale Tournament of Song but also some items he has written especially for this gig such as: Ode to Northern Women and Dr Gazebos Time Travelling Medicine Show. Those attending the auction will also have the opportunity to take part in a grand raffle with some excellent prizes. District Councillor Kevin Lancaster. Mr Lis highlighted the importance of the National Park Authority in playing a fuller and more active role in Yorkshire and Cumbria regions as the new political arrangements are developed. Local farmer Harold Brown from Grinton in Swaledale, was re-elected as deputy chairman. The National Park Authority has a new main telephone number. The number to ring for general enquiries is 0300 456 0030. The Authority’s old 0870 1 666333 telephone number – which has run alongside the 0300 number for several months to ease the change over – no longer exists. The numbers for the Bainbridge and Grassington offices and other sites, such as the Dales Countryside Museum, plus all other direct dial numbers will remain the same. Arkengarthdale Parish Council has recently been successful in obtaining grants from North Yorkshire County Council Community Fund and Richmondshire District Council Heritage Fund to repair the Retaining Wall beside the Arkle beck adjacent to St. Mary's Church Graveyard. Clark Stones, Chairman of the Parish Council, made a presentation in Richmond which resulted in grants of over ‚7,000.

Two males were reported for asking for Red diesel from a local farm .A vehicle that appeared to be abandoned in High Fremington had in fact had it’s number plates removed. Two males were trying to sell Pressure washers in the area of Brokes. A quad bike was stolen in Gunnerside from an insecure garage and the lock was attacked in order to remove the bike. Attempts were made to brake into a garage in Muker where the padlock was sawn off and the metal bar was bent but the offender(s) failed to gain entry. In order to return items that have been stolen , recording of the identification number / serial numbers placed on them, would establish whether or not the item was indeed stolen and who it belonged to. So when new goods are purchased can I remind you to record the items numbers/ code. Overnight 31st July- 1st August two “guests” took a room at The Kings Arms where the bill was left unpaid and a television, kettle, bedding and towels were removed from the room. The couple, a male and female were aged about 40ish both around 5’4” and slim build. The male was bald and the female had spiky black hair. Anyone who saw this couple leaving or spoke to them elsewhere in the village could you please contact PC Andy Foster at Leyburn on 0845-60-60-247 who would appreciate any further information. Reports of suspicious activities/persons and vehicles will always be investigated and any information no matter how small is always appreciated. Many thanks again to 7 you all for your support. All matters that are reported are treated in the strictest of confidence. Information can always be left at my office in Hudson House in Reeth if you fail to see me out and about or at the Police station in Leyburn. PCSO Tracie Lee Taylor-Page 5550 SWALEDALE AND ARKENGARTHDALE DALES WATCH As you may be aware, since it was formed in 1997 the Swaledale and Arkengarthdale Dales Watch, in conjunction with North Yorkshire Police has met with considerable success in reducing the amount of crime which has taken place in our dales. Sadly however, time has taken its toll and recently fewer and fewer people have been volunteering to help to patrol, the area. We are urgently in need of new volunteers. It is not an onerous task as the amount of time spent on patrol is only as long and as often as you wish, additionally drivers will be reimbursed with the cost of any fuel which is used. Please do give your time to this very worthy cause which helps us all to live in more safety. If you wish to volunteer would you please leave your name and contact details at the Post Office addressed to Dales Watch Coordinator.

The Museum was filled with examples of his furniture, from large carved wooden chairs with accompanying models, to his new line of vacuum formed laminated seats and his new product designs.. The evening was full of animated questions, and surprises as many preconceptions about his work were broken. We also heard that he has just won a much coveted Guild Mark for his work. On 8th August Jenny Davies filled our upper gallery with her beautiful, inspiring and innovative patch and fabric work. The greensmith Michael Kusz followed on 22nd August. We are delighted that the painter Mike Bilton will appear on 5th September to discuss his work. All at 7.30 pm in the Museum. Do give us a call if you are coming, as it helps plan the light refreshments! To celebrate the success of the Richmond and Leyburn Embroiderers' Guild exhibition we have made greetings cards from Laurence Scullion's finely worked and humorous 'Northern Icon' embroidery ... of a Yorkshire Pudding! Photographed by Scenic View these cards are available from the Museum shop. Don't forget our next Knitting Cafe on 21 September at 2pm in the Museum, thanks to Paul from Spectrum Yarns we have a huge bag of wool to work on! All Marjorie Daniels's hand spun, dyed and knitted hats and scarves have been sold due to the cold weather! You can come and see her spinning in the Museum most Wednesday afternoons from 2pm-4pm. While you are here come and enjoy our burgeoning cottage garden, the delphiniums have been splendid and the pears are ripening nicely! Extensive preparations are afoot for the MAKE DO & MEND long week-end 18th-20th September. We hope lots of you will want to see demonstrations of a range of money saving and inventive crafts, from French knitting to darning, proddy rug to paper bead making. There will be lots of good ideas for Christmas presents too. The HIGHLIGHT of this week-end will be a lecture given by Professor Barbara Burman who came last year to talk on our pair of 18th century pockets. She will talk on 'Sewing Machines and Home Sewing' at 2 pm on 19th September.. We have had lots of new and exciting acquisitions including a fine lead fire insurance mark rescued from a house in the Dale, and a gilded lead medal commemorating the Swaledale lead taken from the roof of Temple Bar in London when it was re-roofed in the 19th century. The Museum continues to be involved in a wide range of activities. It has been a pleasure working with Reeth School on their Elizabethan project, assisting a novelist with research on the Dale, talking with a visitor about his father Dr William Harwood-Long, who selected Swaledale farmers for a report on farming in 1948, and seeing a wonderful Hymn Tune book by Matthew Calvert from 1859. Our vicar Caroline Hewlett borrowed Dr Speirs's medical bag for a sermon, Kate Trusson's pattern made from our pair of 19th century muffettees (on sale in our shop) is about to be translated into 20 different languages! Visits from various local history and WI groups for special open evenings have been a delight. We hosted 40 from the Ellesmere Port Gardening Club, the Museum was part of their mystery tour, Snape Historical Society, 4th Monday Club from Bedale, the Barnard Castle Historical Society, and our very own Reeth and District Community transport Project held their AGM and Volunteers' Party in the Museum. For the Perspectives in Art group based in Ripon we organised a 'How to Look after your Family Heirlooms' morning which proved very popular. Thank you to all these groups who have used us as a venue and resource!
