Blokes at the Oakes

We are a social group for men aged 60 years or over who meet at the Oakes Barn pub, St Andrews Street South, in Bury St Edmunds on the first Thursday of each month.  No need to book, just turn up on the day.  We meet at 10.30 am for approximately an hour, but people can come and go at any time. 

We have many activities including tenpin bowling each week, weekly coffee /breakfast/ chat at a number of venues around town, twice-monthly evening meals out, gym group at Southgate Community Centre and occasional walks and trips out. We’ve recently started a darts ladder and card school, and will be considering lawn bowls and boules in the coming weeks. 

We are open to new ideas and welcome new members. We are not a club but a social group who socialise for fun. We have no membership charge.
