It's our village's annual Gala Day tomorrow. It's an important fund raiser for our village Sports Association which controls the playing fields and pavilion - providing sports facilities to local kids and adults - primarily football, cricket and bowls. After some problems and disappointing Galas in recent years this year's event should be back to full strength (info here)
Ali & I are helping by running a mini-soccer tournament for local U8 & U10 teams in the morning.
I've also been involved in some of the organisation - there's some very talented and comitted people working together to get this done - and I've been helping with some promotion.
We made a formal press release and were helped by Richmondhsire Council distributing it to local media - it's delivered us articles in local/regional press (see here - although they did manage to print the wrong day!) and promotion on local radio - with one station recording an interview with the Sports Club chairman (BobT) for broadcast on Sunday morning.
Here's hoping for decent weather tomorrow.
