The RCVF Committee is delighted to announce that this year’s Village Fair magazine has rolled off the presses at Bishop’s Printers and will soon be making its way to homes across the village.

Copies will either be delivered to your door or available to collect from a range of local outlets, including Home Hardware, Londis, The Castle Inn, The Bumblebee Cafe, Halls Garage, Rowlands Castle Pharmacy, Barbers on the Green, The Robin Hood, The Staunton Arms and the local Shell Garage, among others.

As always the magazine includes entry forms for this year’s Horticultural Show, once again organised by the Rowlands Castle Gardening Club.

You may also find a flyer titled “Volunteers Needed – Your Fair Needs You”, inviting local residents to lend a hand by giving just a couple of hours of their time to support the fair.

We’re also launching a photo competition, open both to those with favourite memories and photographs from past fairs, and to visitors capturing the atmosphere on the day itself.

And finally, don’t forget to mark Saturday 4th July in your diary — we look forward to seeing you there!
