Our Circle Socials

Most activities of the Circle are social. The spirit within the Circle stems from all Members enjoying shared Catholic values. We see ourselves as an extended family. In addition to the annual pilgrimage to Storrington, home of the Bishop's palace, there are other special Catholic events such as commemorative Masses. We entertain our local priests and sisters at an annual Clergy night.

'Idle Jacks' meets monthly for drinks, a pub lunch, and gossip. Wives and widows meet monthly for coffee, and organise occasional lunches.

In 2006 many events were enjoyed by our families, including President's Sunday, the Ousting Lunch, the annual Circle Golf Challenge & Dinner, BBQ, Summer Tea Party,Clergy Night, Ten Pin Bowling, eating out at various venues such as Powdermills Hotel, and Sillett's, & a Carols Evening with supper.

In recent years the Circle has relished Theatre shows, Pantomime, the Eastbourne & Lewes Beer Festivals, Sussex County Cricket, an evening at the 'Dogs' in Brighton, Croquet, etc.

As well as organising a variety of local gatherings, the Circle also ventures further afield.

In 2007/08 there is a full programme of events that is maintained on this web site.
