Yes it is only a week to go before the May Bank holiday, and our first public events of the year. The first is on Saturday 30th April, at the 
Surrey Heath Show, where there will be classic cars, all sorts of craft stalls, a beer tent, food stalls local and not so local business, fairground attractions for the kids, arena shows and displays, and of course Battlefield south for the not so small children of 8 years old and over. As part of our charitable works, we will also be collecting for The Royal British Legion, and The Army Benevolent Fund (ABF the Soldiers Charity). So if you don’t want to play please add some loose change to the collection buckets which will be available in our tent. The event is being held at Frimley lodge park, and starts at 10 am closing at 4:30pm. All details and ticket sales can be found on their web site (click here)
Then on Sunday 01st May we are at the Abingdon Air and Country show. Being held on the old RAF Abingdon airfield, this is one of the first air shows of the year, and is always a great day out. Besides static aircraft displays with cockpits to sit in, a fully packed three hour air display, ground simulators, fun fair rides, Tank rides, craft and food stalls and live music . As always funds raised at the show will be going to help support the Air Ambulance, which is a worthy cause in itself. As The Army Benevolent Fund (ABF the Soldiers Charity) will have their own presence at the show we will be only collecting for the Royal British Legion. However if you wish to donate to them we would be more than happy to pass any monies over to them. For their website click here
