They Did Their Bit - Winchester and WW1 7:30pm Friday 28 Mar 2014 - hear the ACTUAL stories told of the city's experience during the First World War and those of the soldiers billeted at Morn Hill Camp, a million or more who passed through Winchester between 1914-18. These stories will be brought to life in words and music in a dramatic way by an eclectic cast of thespians and some time singers, under the experienced direction of our very own Ronni Davis. And if that wasn't enough, there will be refreshments as well included in the price of your ticket, a mere £12.50 for adults or £9.50 for students and those prepared to admit they have reached a 'certain' age. It's in a very good cause and will help Winchester Rotary honour its commitment to support the 'To Honour a Promise' Project (which a number of club members are involved in), and contribute towards a permanent memorial to these soldiers, many of whom never returned from Flanders' fields. Cost: £12.50 for adults or £9.50 for students
