Now with radio active dust raining down on our gardens, we ask did the 1986 Spring Greens do us any good?

| − | It's good to see that the [[St John's School Association]] are going great guns and making a lot of money (£400 since our last edition) so badly needed with education in the neglected state it is today.

| − | That [[The Twinning Association]] has reached its 5th birthday is perhaps one of the more remarkable achievements, it was after all a bold decision to twin because both Lacey Green and Hambye are quite small communities for such a venture, it could so easily have folded. The [[Community Choir]] may very well fold after about the same life span of great enjoyment and steady progress by the members. The choir was started by Will Macburnie, it was very much. his ‘baby’ and now that he is moving to take up a headship position in the West Country we can understand the choirs! feeling that no-one could quite take his place.

| − | Many will want to join us in saying thank you to Will, not only from the choirs the from the school and other organisations his energetic enthusiasm has benefitted. We wish him and his wife Sarah all the very best for the future. The Sports Club, and in particular the tennis section, is proving so popular with the extra court. This is great. That the field is to be used for a Sports Family Day is encouraging because a lovely open space ought to be used to the full.

| − | But, that the [[Baptist Sunday School]] are in trouble through lack of numbers, only makes us pine for times of older generations, when 95% of children were made to ‘go to Sunday School, perhaps for the wrong reason, that parents could get some Sunday peace and quiet. But certainly Sunday School days put children very much on the right path of life, something that seems lacking today, Then, it is another more modern age, but that may be too simple an answer.
