Holgate Windmill Fun Weekend: 8th-9th July 2006
 

Saturday 8th July

The windmill will be open to the public from 11am -4pm, so feel free to come and have a look around. The mill is currently covered with scaffolding as preparation is underway for starting the Phase 1 renovation, but we are still able to open the mill so it won't cause a problem. Price for entry is FREE for society members, £3 for non-members. You may join the society on the day if you wish for £8 annual family membership (£5 individual membership).

The photo on the right is Sibsey Trader mill in Lincolnshire. Isn't she beautiful?

Also, on the Saturday, the Art Show will commence. Artwork done by mainly local people will be on display in gardens along the street so please wander up (and down) Windmill Rise and see what budding artistes we have in the area!

Sunday 9th July

Yes, we know it's World Cup Final day, and rest assured, the main activities will be finished before kick off!

The Street Party on Windmill Rise will have entertainment galore throughout the afternoon. A bouncy castle, face painting, a live band, food and lots of games to entertain the younger budding millers! If you want more details of all the days events, please contact Jen Hay, the main organiser, on 01904 792638.
