lennonman Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Ive just found out that the Hurlfield Youth Club has been demolished, it brought back a lot of memories of great times there when I was at Hurlfield in the 70s. The disco, snooker table and the snack bar were the main attractions for me, what do you remember about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah1 Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I remember spending the night in there once.. We were raising money for a new satellite for the school and we were doing a sponsored sit.. It was called "sit for the sat" We were obviously supposed to stay sitting down all night, but none of us did.. This was in the late 80's early 90's..

lennonman Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 I thought the youth club had been knocked down with the rest of the old school!! Is it still being used as a youth club then donna? Im not in Sheffield very often and i was shocked when I saw the school flattened...was sad to see!!

Cath_T Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 It was the pinball for me (in the 70`s) Me too! and the Xmas Party after the school concerts. I think it is now a playgroup or similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The disco, snooker table and the snack bar were the main attractions for me, what do you remember about it? I used to go to Hurlfield school until 1978 and of course the youth club both at lunchtimes and also at night. I remember dancing in the disco and the lads turning off all the lights and grabbing all the girls the filthy little gits! lol I also remember the great music we used to play there too 70s glam rock and of course my fav Northern Soul. We used to have a good laugh there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeightonBabe Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Fond memories...met my husband humperlumper there! I remember a sponsored all nighter and the guys spent half the time deep frying anything they could - such as strawberries ! This would be around 1980/81 .
