BOVEY TRACEY
BOVEY Tracey Activities Trust (BTAT) is a charitable trust run entirely by volunteers. Membership is open to those aged 55+ living within a five- mile radius of the centre of Bovey Tracey. Its aim is to encourage those approaching retirement or already retired to continue to enjoy a physically and mentally active lifestyle by participating in a wide variety of indoor and outdoor educational, recreational and social activities and assisting in running the activities whenever possible.
Membership of the trust is on
an annual basis with renewals due each year at the AGM in April. New membership is subject to availability of places after the end of May each year. Membership numbers are governed by the size of the hall and fire/health and safety issues. The club has been in its home, The Phoenix
Hall, since 2002. Among the activities currently enjoyed by BTAT members are Indoor groups (Played at the Phoenix Hall) which include card and board games such as bridge, cribbage, Rummikub, Scrabble and whist. There are also discussion and book groups,
Activities
away from the club premises include pitch and putt, petanque, activity lunches and walking groups. Members may bring guests to many of the activities in order to give them the opportunity to experience the ethos of the trust and assess whether they would like to become members and participate fully in BTAT activities. Non-members are invited to attend
on a Thursdays between 9.30am and 11.30am for a coffee morning (cost £1) where they can meet with a small group of the members and find out about the trust and the activities that are run.
