If any parent could spare 20 minutes at 4:45pm today (Fri) to drive our van from the village centre to our lockup garage and then down to the school please let us know. We are cooking tonight and need to get the equipment down to the school.<p>

<font face="arial"><font color="red"><b>CHRISTMAS FAYRE</b><br></font><p>
Sorry for mentioning the 'C' word in October, but we need your help!<p>
We are organising our annual Christmas Fayre again at <b>Brookmans Park School, Saturday 3rd December, 2pm-5pm</b>. This is the same day that the tree lights go on and Santa visits the village. This event raises critical funds for the Youth Project which enables us to continue providing all the many and varied activities we offer. We cannot do it though without a little help from parents!

Children's Tombola</b><br>
This is a hugely popular stall, so we need lots of prizes! Why not have a clear out and donate any unused, unwanted children's gifts, large or small. So far gifts have included box games, mugs, action figures, remote control cars, stationery, soft toys, and loom bands. Please deliver items to 36 Bluebridge Road, BP, or drop off at a Friday meeting, or we are happy to collect if you prefer.
<p><b>
Leaflet delivery</b><br>
Each year we distribute lots of leaflets advertising the Fayre to local addresses. If you are willing to help deliver these to a street near you please get in touch. 

If you can help with any of the above please contact:

Our messy games night is taking place from 3-5:15pm on Sat 5th November at the Scout HQ. We will be playing several games on a slightly disguting and messy theme. Although nothing is compuslory old clothing, a towel (and probably a change of clothes) is a definiate must.  If interested, sign up on the website. We do now have enough adult help to allow this to go ahead.
