The first Monday of the month sees the pub hosting a regular board games night. Our local games inventor facilitates this with his knowledge, skill and some of his vast collection of games. It is for all ages and abilities and is thoroughly enjoyable.
8th March - Quiz Night
There was a real threat that this quiz would be under candle light after a power outage in parts of Clewer Village during the aftern noon. However, SSE managed to sort it out in time for the quiz. As usual, there was a good turn out with Hettie's Heroes winning on the night. The rollover wasn't won this week, instead it was a packet of crisps that Linda Morle won. Our next rollover will be £90.
.9th March - Swan Elders
The Swan Elder at the Green Room College was Joe Donnelly, bass player from The Silencers, now Caezar.

This gave the students an opportunity to ask questions and learn how music can play a huge part in your life.

The ever popular James Brown was back at The Swan singing a mixture of styles that really did entertain the locals.

End of each month we have a charity coffee morning with all proceeds going to a nominated cause. This time it was our charity selected by the local community: Swan Support.
