Catsfield

Fete and Flower Show: The annual Catsfield Village Fete and Flower Show will take place at the recreation ground on Saturday, August 4 gates opening at 1.30pm and as the entry is £1 per adult and free for children, this makes it a great value for money local event. It is a traditional Summer Fete with cake stall, teas, coconut shy, BBQ, live music and welly-wanging just to mention a few of the games and delights available. There may be the village stocks but at the time of writing this we are still awaiting volunteers to sit and have wet sponges thrown at them! Anyone able to give an hour or two to help out in any way should contact Wendy on 01424 892965. It's too late now to enter the Flower Show but come along and see all the lovely entries and who has won what. The Flower show tent opens for viewing at 2pm. This year we have an evening of family music from 7pm to 11pm in the marquee following the Fete. Entertainment will be provided by Peter Willson and Linda with the hits from 70s 80s and 90s 'From '˜Frozen' to Frank Sinatra' tickets are £5 and a licenced bar will be available. Children are free so bring a picnic and enjoy the summer evening with friends and family. If this is well supported we are hoping to bring back the barn dance in the evening next year.

Car Boot Sale: Following the huge success of the ‘Mama Mia Sing-along Night’, the next fund-raiser for St Laurence Church will be a Car Boot Sale at the Playing Field on Saturday 15th September at 8.30am. This gives you plenty of time to sort out all the unwanted stuff that you’ve got cluttering up your house, garage and shed and turn it into cash.

WI: A reminder to WI members that there will be a garden tea party at the home of Beryl, our secretary on Thursday 16th August at 2.30pm
