11.00 am – The Campsite “Songs of Praise Service”.
This year’s service will be held on the Campsite on Parson’s Croft. It will be led again this year by Rev. Andy Larkin. It is a popular event which brings together villagers, visitors, and our camping friends from Notts DA. The Service is followed by an opportunity to sit and chat, with tea and coffee provided by the campers.
12.00 noon – Fun and Games with the Campers.
Tug o’War and Volleyball are regulars at this friendly (but fiercely contested) sporting extravaganza, before we move on to more unusual competitions to test the skills of the participants.
6.00 pm – Treasure Hunts around the Village.
Assemble on the Green for a 6.00 pm start (even if it rains – and it usually does!)
For many years Pippa Sillitoe set our Junior Treasure Hunt for the under 14s. Pippa has now left the village and this year the questions have been set by Sharon Rankin. The Village Treasure Hunt for the over 13s has been set by Val Stevenson and Fiona Hadfield.
8.00 pm – Wakes BBQ at the Legion.
A chance to mull over the questions and decide just where you went wrong!
Sausages & pork burgers provided by Paul Dickinson.
