Family Fundraising Cricket Day – This Sunday 10th

Family Fundraising Cricket Day

We are very excited to announce the details for our upcoming Family Fundraising Cricket Day this Sunday. The day will run as follows  (all timings are approximate):

10am  –  Juniors cricket match
Midday  –  BBQ Farm shop burgers and sausages
1-2pm  –  Promises Auction
2pm  –  Adults cricket match

All comers are welcome on the day, including non-club members.  Please contact fundraising@horleycc.co.uk to let us know if you or your children would like to play.

If you are unable to be there on Sunday, but don’t want to miss out on bidding for some of our fabulous promises (see below), you can email fundraising@horleycc.co.uk with a ‘commission bid’. For this you need to  tell us the MAXIIMUM you would bid for that Lot. As with ebay, you won’t necessarily pay that total amount if you win. Bids will go up in increments so you could win with less than your maximum bid. However, if bidding goes above your maximum bid you will not win.

If you are coming for the juniors match, please stay on to support the adults, many of whom are parents who will be needing all the support they can get! Bring a picnic and make a day of it. The bar will be open all day.

So… here are the Lots for the Auction of Promises! Thank you SO much from all at the club to everyone who has kindly donated and committed to giving up their time. We were overwhelmed by the response. Some items offered were goods rather than services and we have decided to hold these back for another auction later in the year.

Scout Camp Seeking Accommodation – August Bank Holiday

Can you provide B&B for Scouting Festival on August Bank Holiday?

Scout

I am writing out of the blue to ask for your help to pass on a request to fellow villagers in Horley, or to put this information on the village notice board, or if the timing works, to advertise in the Horley Views Magazine.

I am part of a team of volunteers that organises an annual family/community festival at the Horley Scout Campsite over the August Bank Holiday weekend.  We have around 300 people camping on the site.  BUT there are always a very small number of people who do not camp.  This can be for all kinds of reasons.  Until now they have not been able to participate as the hotel in Wroxton is prohibitively expensive especially as most of the time is spent at the campsite. We have found a couple of people letting rooms in Hornton  but that is just a little further away ideally we would like to find some accommodation within walking distance of the campsite.

We wondered if there would be residents in Horley who would be willing to let out a room over this bank holiday.  It would be great if that could include access to basic breakfast facilities (tea/coffee, cereal and toast for example) no elaborate or cooked breakfast would be expected. In Hornton we are being charged between £40-50 per room per night. But, if there are Horley residents interested in this we can negotiate everything to reach a mutual agreement.

If anyone is interested in this, they should contact me, Steve Miller by email steve@svmassociates.co.uk or 07941 813 619.

Many thanks
