another field day success

The weather was kind to us on another cracking field day. The threatened heavy rain which loomed in the background for most of the day didnt break until half way through the evening.

Children in the community participated in traditional track events,on the cross country and in the fancy dress. Meanwhile parents competed in a space hopper relay race.

The event was a brilliant success for the new field day committee, so congrats to Tracy and team, who would I am told welcome any help in next years event.

our walk score and blank on the map

The walk score - as determined by www.walkscore.com - for our area is 0 out of 100 and gives us the car-dependent rating.

And if we look onto www.openstreetmaps.com there are too many blanks and missing roads. Time for some WICE and community action to put us and the facilities in the area on the map.

The bonfire night

Plans are under way for the WICE Bonfire Night - this year on the 8th November. This event is rapidly becoming the premier public fireworks night in the area. Be sure to get your tickets early!

Whitechapel Village Hall. 6 p.m. start.

Tickets from Whitechapel School. £7 per adult; £3 for under 12; Free for pre-school.

What a cracker

Another brilliant Field Day at Whitechapel and Inglewhite on Saturday. Despite a short rain shower during the start of the fancy dress event, the weather held out for a great afternoon of track races, the cross country race and a fun adult 'super hero' relay.

Following the races the community tea was well attended by approx 200 people who saw an audio visual presentation of the afternoons achievements and trophies awarded to the winners. All received a merit medal.

The evening was rounded off with a family disco with the Great Aldini in the village Hall.

It is now a well established tradition that the event is funded by the community 'collection' prior to the day. Once again the organisers and all who enjoyed the day are grateful for the generosity of the community in supporting the event.

The present organising committee, having introduced a number of new ideas over their five year life, are now looking for new people to get involved to take the field day forward. If interested, come along to the field day review meeting in the Green Man on July 21st at 7.30pm

Field Day Today

All the action kicks off at 1pm with the Fancy Dress, followed by the sports events, then the community tea. An evening family disco will round off the day.
