Have you seen this guy?
Posted in 2011, Events, Photography, Posts of Note, Young people on Saturday November 5, 2011| Leave a Comment »
This guy looked as bit lost as he was seen staggering down Creamery Lane about 30 minutes ago.
If you see him, do help him, as he’s going to be the star tonight. Give your vote and support to “Guy in Lights”, better than X Factor & Strictly, from 7.30pm, Live on Alsop Road. It’s Bonfire Night!

It’s The Monster Mosh
Posted in A52s, British Legion, Events, Music on Saturday October 29, 2011| 1 Comment »
It is with some relief to us all that The A52s are now unable to play at The Legion this evening – Saturday 29th October at 8.30pm. Apparently they are all too scared of Hallowe’en.
However we have some good news! In their place, The Legion have secured at last minute the services of Dexy’s Chainsaw Massacre – another local band sounding remarkably like The A52s. They are much more scary than our familiar bunch of lads but still drink as much beer.
The band hope to see you there this Saturday evening. Be there and be scared!

Sport Relief 2012 – a chance to be involved
Posted in Events, School, Sport on Friday October 14, 2011| Leave a Comment »
Hi,
I’m contacting you with a cheeky plea for help/request for info from Comic Relief – I hope you don’t mind!Comic Relief would love to get Parwich involved in Sport Relief 2012 but I’m not sure who in your village would be able to help me do this.
From experience recreation committees or sports clubs are the most suitable people for me to speak to so I wondered if you would be kind enough to pass my email details – l.thornton@comicrelief.com (and this link – http://www.sportrelief.com/the-mile/organise-an-event ) on to them in the hope they’ll get in touch if they are interested?
Your help and support would be massively appreciated.
Thanks, Liz
Organise A Mile Event – What’s In it For You
Whether you’re a local council, leisure centre, sports club or university, there’s a lot to be said for organising your very own Sainsbury’s Sport Relief Mile:
- It raises crucial cash for life-changing projects up and down the country and across the world.
- It’s a great way to show off your town or, if you run a club, to raise your profile and get new members.
- It’s inclusive, community-based, plus it gets everyone active and involved in a massive national event.
Our currently our nearest venue for the mile run is Ashbourne Recreation Ground on 25th March – Whether you do 1, 3 or 6 miles – as a family team, with your mates or against the clock – you’ll have a fantastic time when you go the distance. And until 15th December it’s half price entry, just £3 for adults, £1.50 for children and £7.50 for a family of four.
Sports Relief is also kicking off in schools.

£461.32 was raised from the coffee morning, Carolyn donated £50 from her card making and £443.18 was given by Andrea Godfrey, Sacha Wright and Sharon Bull from a charity walk they completed.
Thank you.

The Autumn Dance
Posted in Events, Memorial hall, Music, School on Wednesday October 5, 2011| Leave a Comment »
The Autumn Dance IS going ahead as planned on the 8th October at 8pm
in the village hall
We still have tickets available from
Tracy Marshall 390552 or Louise Bostock 390566
This event is to celebrate the 150th year of Parwich Primary School.
The event is to raise much needed funds for our school.
Due to recent Government Educational budget cuts, the PTA involvement in raising much needed funds for school is invaluable. Also the support from the parents and friends of Parwich Primary School is needed to ensure that our children of the village continue to receive the best education and resources
Your support as parents and friends of Parwich Primary School in attending what promises to be a wonderful evening would be fantastically appreciated. If you are unable to attend, raffle tickets for the event are also available for £1.00 per book and we have some amazing prizes including A Digital Camera, A Watch, A Gallon of Whiskey, Jewellery, Perfume, Days and Meals out and much, much More…..

The Strongman Competition – Video
Posted in A52s, Competition, Events, People, Photography on Wednesday September 7, 2011| 1 Comment »
Many thanks to Tim Yeomans for videoing last Saturday’s outstanding Strongman Competition. Tim has edited the whole three hour event down to a marvellous 10 minute film which captures the spirit of this event; the strength and determination of the competitors, the music of The A52s and the enjoyment of the crowds. Let’s hope that this event becomes a regular part of the village calendar.
