Bellingdon & Asheridge Village Hall, Wednesday August 10th 2022 6.30pm-10.30pm

As you may be aware in recent years the Bellingdon & Asheridge Village Hall & Field has played host to ‘Rumble Camp’, a summer festival of movement & dance (www.rumblefestival.co.uk). Visitors to the event come from many locations, and this year the team are putting together one free ‘Community Evening’ for local people of all ages, U16’s welcome, to provide us all with an introduction to the Festival which takes place at the weekends of 4th-8th & 11th-15th August. 

Julia Samel, the event organiser, has put together a programme for the evening of Wednesday August 10th.  The evening will run from 6pm-10.30pm (not 11pm as below!, see the attached poster) and will have music and dance and some food & drink (veggie food, & drinks available at a small cost) for those locals attending. 

To attend Julia asks that local individuals sign up (all ages welcome) by clicking here Sign up here to register or to contact her with any questions. (Numbers are limited)

We look forward to seeing you there!

Village Hall AGM (13th July) and Pub Night (15th July)

~ bacaadmin

Join us on Wednesday 13th July at 8pm for the Bellingdon & Asheridge Community Association Annual General Meeting. We’ll have wine and cheese afterwards as well so come along and find out what we’ve been doing in and around the hall.

This is the first “in person” AGM for two years: all adults residents of Bellingdon & Asheridge are automatically members of BAACA and are entitled to vote at the meeting or to stand for election to the management committee.

More information and minutes from previous meetings.

Then on Friday 15th July 6:30-10:30pm we have our ever-popular pub night. Join us for home-cooked food, the usual array of drinks, pub games and good company.

Outside games
We are happy for children (and adults!) to play games outside. However responsibility for children lies with the parents/guardians – and please leave any muddy shoes in the hallway.

Help on the night
We look forward to seeing you at the pub nights, which are run by volunteers. If you are able to assist in the setup, running or clear up after the pub night please do let us know.
