Out With a Flash and a Bang, Sat 2nd Nov @ 2.30pm

Well, as the winter nights draw in and the harvest is all but done, we are bringing our social events calendar to a close for this year with one last get-together… A combined Halloween and Bonfire Night party. Please do read all of this post, there are a few things to note.

2nd Nov (Sat), 2.30pm to 4.30pm(ish, depending on what time it starts to get dark.)

There will be a selection of hot food, hot and cold drinks, plus Cakes and maybe a few other things.

There will be a few things to amuse kids young and old, Duck apple, maybe some other activities, and Pumpkin carving competition (see lower down) all being well…

Timetable…
Arrive 2.30pm onwards, eat and drink over the course of the following hour or so, fun and games, a raffle, and then a grand finale of a firework display to bring it all to a close.

Food to include…
Chilli & Rice
Chicken & Noodle Soup
Hot Dogs in Rolls
Cake

As is always the case, please feel free to bring along and contribute additional food/dessert if you want to.

** Feel free to bring Carved Pumpkins to show off and add to the atmosphere **

  • If you can, please do bring mugs, bowls, spoons, etc for yourselves, that would be greatly appreciated…and a bag to take your dirty dishes home again 🙂
    If we all did this, it would save on the waste and cost, and help to reduce the after-event tidy-up chores for the committee and volunteers.

PHAA – Plymyard Hall Allotment Association Membership – Join now for 2024!

IMPORTANT

Hi all, this is a reminder for those who are old hands, and information for those new (getting a plot within the last 12 months) to our allotments.
We have an allotment association (PHAA), run by the elected committee for the benefit of members on our site.
Membership runs from Jan to Dec each year and the current cost is held at just £12 annually for the primary plot holder. Additional helpers can join and receive the benefits for an additional £3 per person (not essential, but can be beneficial.)
(Having a plot and paying the council the annual rent for that plot is separate from association membership, and does not confer membership to PHAA.)
We usually encourage members to pay the fee in Feb, giving everyone a break from paying in Jan, so soon after Xmas, but it is considered to cover Jan-Dec.

What does it provide?
£7 towards site insurance covering individual plots and events etc.
£3 for NAS membership for the primary plot holder.
£2 towards site community funds.
Optional – Each additional person on a plot is £3 for membership of the NAS
At the time of writing, with the process having just started this week, we are already off to a flying start with 22 memberships renewed/started.

Don’t delay and join now, support the community and enjoy the benefits of being PHAA members, including NAS membership and its associated benefits, keener pricing in the imminently opening site shop, and be fully insured (see details below for an overview.)
You can pay via Bank Transfer (details here) and in person to a committee member at any time, and each weekend at the shop and enjoy member pricing immediately!

Please note… if you don’t have an allotment/plot yet, you will need to apply for one with the council, we don’t handle allotment allocations. https://www.wirral.gov.uk/leisure-parks-and-events/allotments
