Broadwindsor Fun Group Put On Talent Show & Fun Day

Put the dates on your calendar and in your diary:
Sunday, 11th June 5 – 7pm and Sunday, 25th June from 12noon
🙂

In response to the questionnaires returned, Broadwindsor Fun Group are putting on a Talent Show at The Comrades Hall on Sunday 11th June. (NB: This is a performance and not a competition!)
This is to be a showcase of local talent – musicians, comedians, poets and any performers from the parish who would like to take part.  Places and time slots will be limited so anyone wishing to take part must contact Wendy Shields or Camille Newall in person or email bwfunday20@gmail.com as soon as possible please.
Available nearer the time, tickets for the event will be £3, to include a complimentary drink on arrival,  Under 16’s FREE

Again, in response to the questionnaires returned, The Fun Day will be on Sunday, 25th June and will commence at 12noon.  It will be a scaled down event from last year’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations and there is less space available in Bernards’ Place but favourite activities will still be there 🙂

Rather than addressing the many global issues that are currently taking place around our world, the Fun Group are keeping it local and very open for interpretation with the theme of “Farming Life” for their Scarecrow competition!

There will be a barbecue, a bar, refreshments from our excellent W.I., stalls and gamesa day of fun!

Nina Garcia

There will be live music including the lovely Nina Garcia who will be welcomed back to perform too.

Chairman, Adrian Gray thanks those who have offered their ‘hands on help‘ with the event, (all should have received an email by now but if not or if you’d like to help then please do get in touch).  There will be a Happy Helpers meeting on Sunday, 16th April at 3pm.
bwfunday20@gmail.com.

Looking forward to Fun and, we hope, the Sunshine!
