Metheringham Village Fun Day 2008

Some people may not be aware but Metheringham FC ran a successful 6-a-side football tournament for 15 years. However in 2007, due to external factors the number of teams entering was such that it would not have been a viable financial operation to run. It was therefore decided, at very short notice, to organise a Fun Day on the Village Sports Field and this proved extremely popular with those people who attended.

It has therefore been decided to carry on with this event, but this year to open it up to other village organisations to make it a truly memorable Village Fun Day, where all monies raised will remain within each village organisations. The date we are looking towards is Sunday 1st June 2008.

The Football Club already have provisional ideas for events which include:

• Charity football match
• Car Boot Sale
• Bouncy Castle
• Food vendor
• Licensed Bar
• Battle of Britain Memorial Flight
• Local Radio

In order to get the arrangements under way, we propose to hold a meeting in March in the Star & Garter where all interested parties can attend to put forward their views on how the day can be a success.

If your organisation wishes to be part of this event, then forward details of your contact and some idea if possible of what activity on the day your organisation would manage, either by post to Metheringham FC. c/o 31 Caroline Road, Metheringham, Lincoln, LN4 3HF or email to steve.asher@tesco.net

Hoping that you will join us in making this event a successful and possibly an Annual Village event.
