This lively community celebration, taking place for the first time this year, combines entertainment with an important cause – raising funds for St Wilfrid’s Hospice (Eastbourne). The event promises an enjoyable afternoon designed to be shared, offering live music, family-friendly activities and a welcoming atmosphere for all ages.
Bring blankets, folding chairs and picnic treats to create their own space and soak up the entertainment. Hot food and refreshments, including freshly prepared jacket potatoes, will also be available from Ye Olde Spud Shoppe.
At the heart of the event will be a live performance from Warbleton Brass Band, whose varied programme of well-known tunes and modern favourites is set to appeal to audiences of all generations.
Younger visitors – and the young at heart – can enjoy a range of free entertainment throughout the afternoon, including close-up magic, balloon modelling and a traditional Punch and Judy show hosted by Jonathan Cann. Hailsham FM will also be present to help capture the spirit of the occasion.
There are cups and cash prizes to be won so now is the time to get hold of an entry schedule which can be downloaded from www.whhs.co.uk or picked up from many local venues and shops. There will be classes for flowers and flower arrangements, home grown vegetables and home produce, photographs, handicrafts and children’s sections, along with teas, cakes and a raffle. If you have never entered a show before, please do not feel you need to be an expert. Just enter whatever you grow in your garden or make a cake. With so many prizes available, you are likely to win something. Classes in the children’s section are divided into three age groups. So have a go. Entrance £2, children free.
