Which means that here at POWSA Towers we are preparing the grand hall for Halloween (12 sleeps), the grounds are being turned into a huge pyrotechnic delight for Bonfire night (17 sleeps) the candles and chandeliers are lit to celebrate Diwali (23 sleeps) and, most importantly, we check the post every morning to see if the tickets to this years Autumn Fest have arrived.
(The number of sleeps has not been independently verified, it was merely a whimsy to make this blog seem somehow more interesting and is in no way meant to be accurate)
Yes, that's right, Autumn Fest 2015 has now been confirmed, it's 26 sleeps until the big day and most of the afternoons activities and entertainment is in place, so here's the low down on the plan so far;
In the afternoon we have a magic show and balloon modelling, courtesy of Andy the Magic man, we have storytelling and singing, games and entertainment for all of the family. We will then have a break for an hour to allow everyone to have something to eat, before the evenings live musical entertainment kicks off and we are pleased to announce that the headliners this year will once again be Quinns Quinny. In short, for those who have missed any of our recent festivities, bring your dancing shoes, the kids dancing shoes and be prepared to enjoy an afternoon and evening where schools definitely the place where all the cool kids are.
As a special treat this year we will also have a dressing up opportunity for all you secret divas, don't worry we will let you know a little more nearer the time. It's safe to say there will be photographic evidence and, if necessary, it can be used in a court of law.
What's that I hear you cry, "When is this reasonably priced family festival of fun and entertainment?" Well that's a good question and no mistake.
The date for your diary is Saturday 14th November, and the fun starts from 2pm. There is no cost if you are under the age of 2, however for the rest of us it's £2.50 per child (under 16's) and £5 per adult. Tickets will be on sale on a first come first serve basis so look out for the letters coming home soon
We do not have a licenced bar, however, you're welcome to bring your own refreshments but please remember there will be lots of families present and you will be expected to maintain a modicum of self control.
We are also going to operate an open buffet this year, so bring along a plate of food or 2 (disposable plates please) and we will put them all out for everyone to share. There will be no prizes for the most original entries to the buffet but if everyone brings sausage rolls and crisps it may not be the most appetizing feast so go crazy and show us your buffet favourites (cheese & pineapple hedgehog, anyone?)
We will publish a complete schedule before the big day but hopefully this has been enough to wet your appetites.
