Hello
Everyone
HOT OFF THE PRESS ..... with just 2
weeks to go until the big day in Nocton, Monday 4th June, just an update for you
after our latest Nocton Festival 2012 meeting. Please forward this email on to
your own contacts, friends and acquaintances.
Jubilee Mug
Collection
If you ordered a Jubilee mug via
Councillor MaryAnn Williams from Nocton Parish Council, you will be able to
collect it/them on Monday 4th June at the “Royal” Garden Party on The Green.
The mugs will be available for collection from 2pm from the Raffle
Gazebo.
Putting up the Village
Bunting
With circa 200/300m of bunting made
by various residents, we need people to help us hang it up to adorn our
beautiful village. If you would like to lend a hand, please meet at 1 Wrays Yard, Nocton on Saturday 2nd June at
2pm. Everything has been organised, so all we need is the
labour. Come along and have some fun making Nocton look fabulous for the
Jubilee week.
General Set-Up for the
“Royal” Garden Party
If you can lend a hand making The
Green look good for the “Royal” Garden Party, then pop along to Wilderness Cottage, The Green on Sunday 3rd June at
10am . We will need help putting up gazebos, collecting and
placing chairs and moving some (kindly donated) picnic furniture into position –
many hands make light work.
House
decorating
It would be nice to see as many
houses decorated for the Jubilee week as possible. Please consider decorating
the frontage of your house in red, white and blue – even a simple Union Flag
(NF2012 has found flags for sale for £1 from Wilkinson’s and Poundland also has
some cheap flags and bunting available) It use
to be traditional to dress your window with a Royal display – let’s
make our village one of the best in the area! Even if you are not around during
that week, leaving a flag in your window would be a fabulous
gesture.
“60 Glorious Years of
Music” evening celebration event
We still have some tickets left for
the evening dance. Please see the poster in yesterday's blog. This event is open to young
and old alike, and not just Nocton residents – make sure you secure your place
soon – a fantastic night out with fabulous music, supper, licensed bar and .....
without the need for a taxi home or baby sitters (children welcome until the
Beacon lighting time 10.26pm)
And finally ...
Children’s
Competition
Please encourage the children to
enter our creative “Palace Garden on a Plate” competition. We have some lovely
prizes up for grabs.
Thank you for taking the time to
read this email. As we always say, if you would prefer not to receive updates –
just let us know via return email. We do hope however, to see you at some point
over the weekend and Jubilee week.
Regards
