La Société Sercquaise publishes a Newsletter at Christmas and Midsummer and Annual Reports for the Annual General Meeting at the end of March. These are available free to members. The Society also encourages its members to publish research projects.
We have produced pamphlets : Sark Windmill 1571; Sark Prisons commemorated 150 years since the building of Sark’s celebrated Prison in 1856; The Gouliot Caves was produced in conjunction with La Société Guernésiaise, to mark the registration of the Gouliot Caves and headland as a Ramsar wetland site of international importance in April 2007. Susan Synnott worte and illustrated a guide to The Ferns of Sark published in 2008 and is now working on a wildflower guide.
Sark Voices
La Société Sercquaise launched their first CD in September 2009, Sark Voices, a collection representing some of the earliest sound recordings of music and voices of Sark. They give a fascinating insight into the past life and times of the Sarkese including solos and choruses of folk songs as well as the sound of haymaking in the 50s and the Clameur de Haro, a Norman call for justice. The CDs are available for £10 including postage within the UK. Contact Jo Birch at La Société Sercquaise, Sark, GY9 0SB or email her on jo.birch@cwgsy.net
