Good Easter Sportsfield Association Committee:

Martin Allpress Chairman, Julie Oliver Treasurer, Vice Chairman Gareth Fisher, Committee member, Graham Seeley.

 

 


Aims:

The aims of the GESFA are to maintain and improve the village centre sports field, together with the buildings, play and sporting equipment.

Consistent with these aims, new swings have been installed for the younger children and new goalposts have been erected for the older children. A grant application was successful and new play apparatus for the very young has been installed.

The Association is aware that time and the elements have had a detrimental effect on the sports pavilion and are actively campaigning to raise sufficient funds to carry out the necessary repairs to make this a useful amenity that the village can be proud of.

Good Easter Village Fete and Dog Show 2009

 

We were blessed with reasonable weather this year which helped to ensure that the Fete was a real success and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

The committee were delighted that Anne Mathews kindly agreed to open the Fete, Craft Fair and Dog Show. Lucy Wiles presented Anne with a posy of flowers. Putting on the three events at the same time seems to be a real popular format and there was something for everyone. Over 300 people from the village and many from further away attended and seemed to stay for most of the afternoon.

All the money raised will go towards the running costs of the Sports field and help pay for maintenance. We have banked over £1,700 and after costs we expect to have a net profit of over £1,250. So a big thank you for everyone who gave up their time, donated a prize, made something, set up a stall, served drinks and cleared up afterwards, well done team Good Easter, it would not have been possible without you.

To all those who came along and paid their hard earned money to eat, drink, watch or had a go at one of our stalls, brought a raffle ticket or entered the other competitions, you made the whole effort of putting on this event worthwhile - so a real big thank you.

 

 

Cars shine in Good Easter 2009

The Sports Field Association together with The Mother & Toddlers group spent the morning cleaning cars for the villagers, to help raise monies to get sufficient funds to complete the installation of children’s play equipment.

Even those without cars came to enjoy the splendid teas and cakes on offer that had been given to help support the day by members of the village.

The wonderful spring morning truly inspired the children, supervised by their parents, to clean loads of cars. 

A big thank you to all those who came with or without their filthy cars.

In total, with the car cleaning and the teas and cakes we received in excess of £300, this will ensure that we get further funding of £1,000 from one of our charities who are helping to finance the equipment.

To get us started we had a very generous donation of £100 from Glenn Harding of Good Easter Treecare, of 7 Souther Cross, for your professional tree surgery call 01245 231147 or on his mobile 07930 915074.  N.P.T.C Certified S.S.T.S Registered Local Council Approved.
