Feckenham Wake

Saturday, 24th June from 1pm on The Square and Recreation Ground, Feckenham www.facebook.com/FeckenhamWake

Agreat afternoon out for all the family. The Wake is a “fete on steroids” centred on the ancient village Square in the picturesque Worcestershire village of Feckenham.

It features lots of attractions guaranteed to appeal to all ages and tastes – there’ll be games and things to bounce on for the youngster, a trial of strength for the dads (and mums) and a Fun Dog Show for Fido. There’ll be an enormous Classic Car Show with over 100 shiny motors on display. Also featuring will be Punch and Judy, The Arrow Valley Brass Band, All Round Voices Choir, Erstwhile Border Morris and Feckenham Country Dancers. There’ll be lots to see and plenty to eat and drink – a real ale bar, a prosecco bar, cream teas, a pig roast, pizzas, home made samosas, ices and candy floss… and there’ll be The Nutkins – a pair of giant performing squirrels – you won’t believe your eyes!

It all starts at 1pm on The Square at Feckenham. Entrance is free – though there is a small charge for parking. Feckenham is just south of Redditch on the B4090. Satnav users should enter the postcode B96 6QH.
