The village has a strong community spirit and the lockdown has brought people even closer together.
There is an active WI group, best-kept garden competition and a flower festival, which villagers hope will take place on the August Bank Holiday this year. The Yelling Beer Festival takes place on the first May bank holiday and is always well attended by locals and visitors.This is run by Yelling Social Club, which and in normal times is open on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings.

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/
SXSW EDU is pleased to announce that Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Bruce Perry, the co-authors of the upcoming book
What Happened to You (Flatiron Books out April 27), will open the 2021 virtual event as the keynote session on Tuesday, March 9, 2021 at 9:30am CT.
The fireside chat will feature global media icon and philanthropist, Ms. Oprah Winfrey and world-renowned brain development and trauma expert, Dr. Bruce Perry, M.D. Ph.D. Together they will explore the impact of childhood trauma on who we become, the decisions we make, and how healing must start with one question what happened to you? Ms. Winfrey and Dr. Perry focus on understanding how shifting the approach to trauma and allowing understanding of the past allows for an opening of the door to resilience and healing in a proven, powerful way.
Then, it all came crashing down. I knew something wasn t right for sure just because I couldn t really put too much pressure on (my left knee), Glass said. But for the first week, I didn t even know that (my left ACL) was torn, and our trainers were telling me that it might have been something with my hamstring. I didn t find out until about a week later when I took an MRI. That s when they told me.
Glass said he sustained his season-ending knee injury after catching a pass and planting awkwardly in a Week 6 win at LaPorte on Sept. 25. He walked off the field under his own power thinking he would return, but when it was confirmed that Glass high school football career was over, he was heartbroken.
“It was just Henry Aaron being Henry Aaron,” House said. “I remember in Cincinnati when he opened up there, kind of being this pushing him, ‘What if you hit the tying home run Friday? Are you going to play Saturday or Sunday? What happens this? What happens that?’ And he was like, ‘Look, I’m here to play baseball. I’m going to play baseball, and what happens, happens.’ Unflappable. He may have been really nervous inside or frustrated, or whatever. He never showed us as teammates.”
House had met Aaron years before after signing with Atlanta as a minor leaguer in 1967.
