Flaming June has arrived :)) and preparations are well in hand for the 2016 Village Fete on July 2nd, which this year will have an historical theme.
Latest update on the Fete and associated events;
Evening entertainment and supper; From 7pm, Michael Knights, our local ‘DJ’, will provide music with a 60’s/70’s theme. Dress to suit the 60/70s theme is optional, but there will be a prize for the best-dressed person!
Tickets available from Bernie Fenn – floracot@btinternet.com or telephone 558407. Price: £8.50 for adults, £5.50 for under-16’s and tickets to include fish and chip supper with strawberries and cream for dessert. There will be a pay bar. ALL WELCOME
Other events;
Also, in the Dog Show at the fete, there will be a prize for the best-dressed dog, again with historical influence.
We are also hoping to organise a classic car tour of the village and exhibition at the fete. If you have a vehicle that you would like to include, please contact Michael Knights for details – mchlknights@gmail.com
As well as the usual races and dog show etc, there will be a Shotesham History tent, archived village photos on display and a chance to find out more about Shotesham by following the clues along the updated Village Heritage Trail. And for art lovers or budding artists, we are also hoping to arrange an Art competition and exhibition.
All the fun of the Fete – 2015
Other events are still being looked at and details will follow in due course.
We’re still looking for some volunteers for cake making, putting up marquees and taking turns to facilitate games etc. If you’d like to provide cake(s) for the tea tent or can spare some time to give some other assistance, please let us know via the ‘contact us’ button on the website or contact Ken on 550736. Looking forward to your help and to a big turnout, and of course some summer weather!
