The Friends of Humbleton is a group of residents who organise two events a year - the Family Fun Day in July and the Christmas Light Switch on in December. It is a self-financing group and all funds raised at the two events are ploughed back into the next event.
The Family Fun Day 2019
Due to the pandemic, yes 2019 was the last time we held this event. We hope that we can hold an event during 2024 - watch this space and our facebook hub page for more details.
Christmas Light Switch on 2023
A big thank you to everyone who came to our 'party' to celebrate the start of Christmas 2023. It was great to see so many attend. Then we all moved to a decorated church - St Peters - for mulled wine, burgers and sausages, mince pies plus raffle, tombola and Santa made an early visit to all the children who received a gift. A big thank you to St Peters, for letting us use the church for event. We had the fabulous BBs providing live music.
As the church had built a toilet and kitchen area, we benefited from not having to hire a toilet. Though the BBQ was still used outside (to prevent the church smelling). The food and drink all went down very well. The event lasted a while longer than previous years and with the addition of the BBQ outside, a good night was had by all. The raffle and tombola generated lots of interest and helped raise our funds to recoup our costs.
Thank you to everyone who supported the event - from decorating the tree, checking the power supply worked, decorating the Church, organising the BBQ and the drink and music, plus the contributions to the raffle and tombola. Mark your date in the diary - around late November / early December 2024.
