The Summer Event will be at Manor Farm House, kindly offered by Lys and Peter Cook.
It's right at the heart of the village, opposite the village hall.
We'll be using the village hall's facilities, as well as tables, chairs, etc.
We’re doing a big “refresh” for the Summer event, with lots of stalls and things for kids.
We’ve had very productive consultation sessions in the last few weeks. If you’ve not been able to get to one of the sessions, then please do join the conversation, and contact Hugh.
We’re going to be having more things for kids, such as Teddy Tombola, Pre-loved Toys, and also a tuck shop.
We’ll be keeping some favourites, such as the internationally famed Duck Race, Bowls, Name the Lobster, and the Garage Game. Downy Duck has been waddling through the early summer flowers to prepare for a celebrity appearance at the Duck Race.
There’s also the return of the fabled West Hendred Cake Stall !
As well as the lunch, there will be a hot-dog stall (£2) and hopefully an ice cream stall. There will be a bar with beer, Pimms and wine, as well as orange juice, lemonade and other soft drinks.
Entrance is free – yet again! Lunch is £10 for an adult and £5 for a child under 12. Children under 5 continue to be free. We think this is excellent value for two courses and a choice of cheeses, with quality food and a wide choice. Payment can be by card or cash.
Please come along to this very enjoyable occasion to meet and make new acquaintances.
How could you help?
If you would like to run a stall, or your own ideas for stalls, please do say.
Can you offer items for the Cake Stall?
We’ll be putting up the marquee and beer tent from 6pm on Thursday 11th July.
We would be very grateful for donations towards the tombola and items can be dropped off with Hugh and Annabel at Mill Farm House – the thatched house on Mill Lane. Tins, bottles, toiletries, candles, unused gifts etc. or anything else you can think of, all welcome.
We do need help with the food on the day, as well as people volunteering food items. I’ll be emailing on the food items in early June. Do contact me if you wish to be included.
If you would like to help, please do contact Hugh on 833174, or [email protected] .
