As promised last month we said we'd give you an update on our Lex Fest and how the day went. Well what can we say.... the sun certainly shone down on us, the day was an absolute scorcher! One of our committee members registered 38 degree's in their car and it absolutely felt like that and more in the heat of the day stood in the middle of Epworth Show Ground. But that did not put our supporters off who turned up in their drones set out to have a really good day out. The atmosphere was that of fun, laughter and enjoyment as people set up 'camp' on the field ready to sizzle in the sun. Our It's a Knockout Teams worked like Trojans as they jumped, climbed and bounced their way round the assault course cheered on by family and friends sat sunbathing on the sidelines with an ice cold beer in their hands. Shortly after this finished, a Tractor Run of around 100 different style tractors drove through the Showground followed shortly by the Father's Day egg and spoon races, the Dog Show, and the Magic Show. Meanwhile inside the marquee our bar staff worked tirelessly keeping guests supplied with ice cold drinks and food, our Committee members were busy running the raffle, cakes stand and tombola, and the face painter created some stunning artwork on people's faces. All in all a very successful day. So we hear you ask... what was the total amount of money raised from the event. Well we are very proud to announce that Lex Fest 2017 raised an incredible estimated ÂŁ4000.. We say estimated at this stage as money is still arriving from the It's a knockout sponsorship.. So we have a big big THANKYOU to each & everyone of you.... you are AMAZING & we are so proud to have you all as part of Pride of the Isle, without you, we simply couldn't do it!! #memoriesforlife đ&#x;’š Look out for Lex Fest 2018 details and all other planned events on our website www.prideoftheisle.co.uk. All enquiries about the charity, whether it's how to fundraise for us, how to help us in our mission, or how to join our committee, please contact us via the website and one of the committee members will be in touch. Pride of the Isle, creating memories for life!

Now & Then
NO. 100 By Anthony Catherall
A double page feature this month to conclude my series of 100 articles entitled ‘Now & Then - Then & Now’. As Remembrance Day approaches once more I would like to devote this page to the fallen soldiers of Epworth, with a series of scenes of yesteryear and today taken in the area surrounding the cultivated War Memorial that stands adjacent to Albion Hill close to the John Wesley Statue. The name of every soldier from Epworth who was taken prematurely from their families in the two World Wars, are engraved on two handcrafted stones within the Memorial.

Then & Now
No 100 by Anthony Catherall
I compose in June 2017. Exactly 314 years have passed after the birth of John Wesley recognised as one of the founders of Methodism along with brother Charles and fellow cleric George Whitfield. It was Wesley himself who more that anyone else brought prominence to the town of Epworth. In this last of the current articles, I would like to assign this page to the memory of him and his beliefs in Christian living that depended on acts as well as faith. Epworth’s statue of the great man stands high on Albion Hill overlooking the Old Rectory and its gardens; his birthplace on 17 June 1703. Lastly. I would like to thank all the people who have provided pictures and factual information to make this series possible. On page 15 next month, look out for a new feature in the Arrow Magazine.

EPWORTH MUSIC DAY 2017 PHOTOS courtesy of Anthony Catherall

Please mention “The Arrow” when responding to advertisements
In a summer when the weather has been on a topsy-turvy rollercoaster ride, it looked as though this year's Epworth Music Day on Saturday, 24th of June would be caught in the tailwind of the blistering heat of the weekend before. But as the weather cooled, a brief window of glorious summer sunshine opened above Epworth on the Saturday morning. Just in time to welcome 80 hours of free music that day across 13 different venues and provided by 50 different groups, bands and performers. All free. What a mouth watering prospect it was. The first notes of music were struck by the bells of St Andrew’s Church which rang out at 9.45am. The next respite from music that day around the centre of Epworth was at midnight. By then it had been some day. Someone said ‘what a joy it was for us all to wander around the village, visit the various shops and take in so much variety in music. Having played hundreds if not thousands of events myself over the last decade that I’ve been playing professionally, I can honestly say I don’t think I’ve played such a well organised festival - so credit to you and your team!’ and another comment was ‘We were pleased to see such a large turnout, lots of happy faces, joining in the singing and dancing, Epworth was a really brilliant place on Saturday’, but perhaps the comment that summed up what really happened last Saturday was ‘There was something very special about yesterday in Epworth.’ Indeed there was. Peter Barnard, director of the event, said that ‘everyone enjoyed it. Performers, audience, and traders who were very busy – both food and drink retailers as well as others. It was a day when Epworth finally loved Epworth Music Day and decided to party. People were still talking excitedly about it for days afterwards. Welcome financial support for the event came from Epworth Town Council, Harold Woolgar Insurances and Ocean 52 Fish and Chip Shop and without that financial backing the event would not have happened.’ He also praised the hard work of his colleagues and the stewards who looked after people on the day so well. He added that ’an event that offers such a wide range of musical genres and can be enjoyed without having to buy a ticket is very unusual and gives people a great chance to experience and celebrate live music. This was a community event, organised and run by the community for the community.’ He added ‘as Epworth Music Day has grown in size, scope and success we need some more people to help us prepare for it and run it so that we can maintain its high standing. For the future we need help with a number of jobs from October onwards. These include working with the first aiders, our insurance broker, preparing the music licence application, as well as sorting out and erecting directional road signs and advertising banners. Without this help, we'll struggle to maintain the event at the level we experienced this year.’ If you think you could help with one or more elements of the administration, please contact Peter Barnard on 01427 873937 or peter.barnard@me.com
