Brilliant Bonfire Bash!

After a not-so-promising start to the day, it cleared up in time for our Annual Bonfire Night party.   As well as a huge bonfire and fireworks display Members enjoyed pumpkin soup, hotdogs and Jane’s delicious ginger parkin. There was also a leaf-lantern making workshop.

Thank you to everybody who built the bonfire, lit fireworks,  tidied the Clubhouse and prepared food as well as those who donated fireworks.

Earlier in the day we also held our Autumn General Meeting.  We discussed and adopted the new tenancy terms and conditions. These will be issued along with rent renewals in December.  Rent day will be on Sunday 8th December.

Bonfire night party – Saturday 2nd November

On Saturday 2 November we will be having our annual Bonfire party for members and their families.

There will be hot food, a bonfire, fireworks, as well as toasting marshmallows and making s’mores.  Children will be able to make lanterns to help light the way to the bonfire.

Lantern making starts straight after the Autumn General Meeting at around 4pm with the food and the bonfire starting at 5pm.

The event is free for members but we would appreciate donations of  fireworks – cake or barrage types (not small mixed packs).

To help us plan the event could members please pick up a ticket from the shop or a committee member.

 

 

Autumn Community Spruce – Sunday 13th October

The summer is officially over and it’s time to start tidying up and planning for next year.

On Sunday 13 October between 11-3pm there will be a Community Spruce day to help tidy the site and get ready for bonfire night.  You can come for all or part of the session.  There will be a range of jobs to do.   Lunch will be provided along with plenty of tea and cake.

We will also be providing advice on composting and what can be grown in the colder months.

Hope to see you there.  If you can’t help out on the day but are available on other days don’t forget to check out the board next to the Clubhouse for site jobs or speak to a committee member.
