Stourpaine 2013 Village  Fête
Sunday, 30th June 2013
Noon until 4 p.m.

It may seem early days to let readers know that the Stourpaine Village Fête will be held in the village at the end of June this year.  Hopefully the awful weather we have been having will be a distant memory and that visitors to the fête will be able to enjoy a great summer’s afternoon of entertainment.  Apart from the more traditional stalls offering books, bric a brac, cakes, bakes and local produce for sale, a number of events are being organised for all to enjoy.  Mr Mark Farwell will be bringing his two magnificent steam engines to the fête – a miniature version of the Great Dorset Steam Fair.

 Also plans are in hand to welcome back to Stourpaine, the Shooting Stars Theatre Company who staged their own version of Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing” last year at the White Horse pub.  This year they plan to stage their stage version of “The Wind in the Willows” at the fête.  Other forms of entertainment will include a ferret racing, an impromptu dog show, a collection of vintage cars, tug of war and lots of entertainment for children.

With the Trailway now open between Blandford and Sturminster Newton, people will be able to stop for refreshments at the Stourpaine Village Fête.

Please put a note in your diary to come to the summer fête and help us make this fête a great success!
