The Rubicol Musical Megafest – Volunteer meeting on 19th March at 7.00 pm

Mountfield Village Hall Committee are planning a big musical event to take place at the village hall on Saturday 8th June – see attached poster. This is a celebration of the lives of Ruby Willis and Colin Harmer, who made such a contribution to village life.

We plan to have a number of live bands playing lots of different styles of music throughout the day – hopefully something for everyone. There will also be a BBQ, bar, tea and cakes stall, children’s games, tombola, etc. Donations will be asked for, to go to support the village hall.

We need to get the help of the community to run the event, and would like to get volunteers together at a meeting at the village hall on Tuesday 19th March at 7.00 pm to address any questions and get people to sign up.

In particular, we need volunteers to help:

  • setting things up on the morning of the day
  • clearing up on the Sunday morning afterwards
  • help to run the BBQ, kitchen, children’s games, tombola
  • bake a cake for the stall
  • help with a leaflet drop around the village

If there are any other bands who would be interested in playing please get in contact.
We would also like to hear from a qualified first aider, and anyone willing to do children’s face painting.

Please just turn up on Tuesday 19th March at 7.00 pm to offer your services, or contact organiser Trish Jones on 01580 880431 or email trish.mountfield@hotmail.co.uk.
