Car Treasure Hunt Results
Fantastic fun around Pontardawe and surrounding areas. Thank you to Martin and Anne for all their hard work. It really was a brilliant event. Everyone was able to complete the treasure hunt and arrived at the destination, albeit marriage, friendship and navigational skills being put to the test!
Well done to the winning team, “The Three Amigos”

Raising Money Madness
This coming year, we would like to raise money to continue to work of the Association. So far, the suggestions are a pub quiz, curry night, treasure hut and stalls at local events such as the Ponty Summer festival. We also hope to make and sell items like promotional shopping bags with our Twinning Logo on. If you have any brilliant ideas or would like to help out, come along to one of our monthly meetings which are held in the Cefn Llan Community Centre on the last Thursday of every month at 7:30 pm. Refreshments provided.

St Davids Day Celebration
Nearly 50 members came together to celebrate St. David’s Day and raise money for the Association. Lynne and Clive made a fantastic cawl, with an army of supporters providing delicious cakes, French and Welsh cheeses and other tasty treats.
Trevor provided a challenging pub quiz of all things Welsh which was hotly contested, but in the end was won by Lynne and Clive by the tie break question by correctly guessing how many likes our Facebook page has.
The prize was a welsh rugby ball, signed by rugby star, Shane Williams. All in all, it was a great night, with excitement rising about seeing our friends from Locmine in a couple of months.
