Letter From The Secretary
Dear Lavant Valley
Villagers, Fete Attendees, and Friends,
Re. Singleton Village Fete Saturday 22 July 2006.
I am pleased to write on behalf of the Committee to express sincere
thanks to everybody who sponsored, provided, helped and attended at this
years Singleton Fete.
It was again a tremendous success, both in financial terms, as we raised
well over £3,500.00; and as an amenity for the Valley and surrounding
areas.
This year we had a record of over 500 people attending amongst other
things to listen to the 40 strong Bognor Regis Concert Band ( and they
were really splendid ) and enjoy the usual traditional fete attractions;
a Coconut shy, book stall, cakes, tombola, retro clothing, etc., etc.,
etc.,
All of this was observed, and overlooked from on high by Neville, one of
the Shire Horses from the Singleton Open Air Museum, who popped in for
the afternoon.
Well done everybody who was in any way involved, a really great event.
The date for the Fete next year has yet to be announced, but look out
for it, as this is definitely an annual event not to be missed, and new
participants will be most welcome
Many thanks,
The Secretary (01243 811451)
£3,500 Raised at Singleton Fete
A HUGE thank you to all who contributed this
year to the Fete which raised over £3,500. The Tombola Team would like
to say a special thank you as it was able to raise over £500 - a record!
They could not have done it without your generosity.
Feedback and Photos
From Jenny Martin
The tombola was the biggest I have ever seen and must have raised a tidy
sum and there was enough bric-a-brac to fill a hall! Cakes, teas and
ice-cream was very strong and so was the raffle. There was the
forty-piece Bognor Regis Concert Band who played for an hour and went
down very well. Thanks Jenny. Here's a few of Jenny's snaps. Click on

SATURDAY 3rd SEPTEMBER 2005
The fete was held at Sheepwash Meadow, by kind permission of the
Singleton Cricket Club.
For your information, the Steering Committee comprised: Paul Andrews
(Chairman), David Mather (Secretary), Ann Pollock (Personnel) & Ion
Castagli (Logistics). With the approval of the Rector a 'steering
committee' of village residents was set up to spearhead the organisation
of this important event in the village calendar. The date of the event
was agreed with the Cricket Club
and coincided with the Totally Tomato event at West Dean Gardens. It was
a fine sunny day for the fete, which is always a good start, and the
Committee were very pleased with the response and attendance from local
people. It was felt that the fete was a real community affair, and a
thoroughly enjoyable afternoon was enjoyed by everyone involving many
new people and different sideshows and displays. Here's some photos of
the event...
Over £3,500 Raised!
