The season is coming to an end
Posted by Mark | Filed under News, Next events
The summer season is almost at an end and with that the end of summer shows, festivals, carnivals and events. That is not to say we won’t still be covering corporate events and private parties, however our summer of fun is almost at an end. But before that here are a couple of dates for you, (unless you have an event you would like us to attend).
Firstly if you are a member (or even if you are not) the Royal British Legion Riders Branch are holding a “Bunny Bash” this coming week end at BOSC, Bolley Avenue , Bordon Hampshire , GU35 9HG. This is a camping event on Friday 12, with festival and carnival type entertainment on Saturday 13 (With Battlefield South in attendance of course). Entertainment starts at about 10 am and goes on until late, with the opportunity to stay (camping) over night again and departing on Sunday 14. Unfortunately due to other commitments Battlefield South will only be there on the Saturday. Entrance and camping (we are lead to believe ) are free, and proceeds from the event going to the branch fund and the RBL.
Then on Sunday 14 September we have an event a little closer
to home at the Hiltingbury Extravaganza , near chandlers Ford. The event is taking place on Hiltingbury Recreation ground, Hiltingbury Road, Chandlers’s Ford SO53 5NP. And is to be a mass of stalls, rides, Music, all the fun of the fair, and of course Battlefield South. With everything starting at 12:00 and ending at 17:00 (ish). This is the biggest extravaganza yet so if you have been before this will be better, and if you haven’t, it is not to be missed.

Post European Tour
Posted by Mark | Filed under News, Next events
After a brief European tour to Germany in support of British Army units in Fallingbostel garrison, ande a very brief visit to Paderborn, yet another the big weekend is fast approaching. So what better way to spend Sunday 03 August, than paying a visit to Highclere castle, (where Downton Abby is filmed). Not only are there the usual attractions of the very impressive building and lovely grounds, Egyptian exhibition, but on Sunday there is the added attraction of their “Heroes at Highclere” event. There will be charity football, singing, dancing, and general fun making, and that’s just from the battlefield South team. 
The whole weekend is being held in aid of various Military charities, like the Royal British Legion, Combat Stress, and The Army Benevolent Fund. With air displays and fly past by a spitfire, Mustang,and the “Sally B” flying fortress. The red devils, and static ground displays, Calvary demonstrations, Reading pipes and Drums, as well as arts and crafts, and of course Battlefield South with its outdoor laser battle game with replica FN P90 and H&K MP7 weapons.

Hopeful for dry weather next weekend

Yesterday was a bit wet, and to be honest didn’t go quite as planned. So many thanks to those who braved the thunderstorms, and rain to support Battlefield South, and The Armed Forces at The Aldershot Military Festival (The Army Show) 2014.
For those who were unable to travel to Aldershot, don’t worry next week end is planned to be just as fun packed, but a little closer. On Saturday 5 July Battlefield South will be at the Hedge End Summer Carnival. The carnival procession starts at 14:15 hours (2.15 pm) from St John’s Road, but the stalls at Greta Park Upper Northam Road, will be open much earlier. There is live music, lots of stalls, Bouncy castles, and alike and fireworks at the end of the day. Entry is £1 for adults and 50p for children. For more information go to http://www.hedgeendcarnival.org.uk/ .
Then On Sunday 6 July Battlefield South will be at the Merchistoun Hall, Horndean for their Summer Fair. Again there are lot of activities, with Bouncy castles, craft stalls, Food stalls, and battlefield South.

Week end off (as if)
Posted by Mark | Filed under News, Next events
Despite our best efforts we have been unable to secure an alternative event for you this week end, after the cancellation of the dragon boat races at Winsor Dorney this week end.
However on the bright side, it was a tad damp this morning, (or so i am told) and there is always next weekend (Sunday 15 June 2014) when we will be at the Portsmouth Scouts event, on Southsea Castle Field. The activities start at about 09:30 (9.30am) with a Volleyball competition running throughout the day, art and craft stalls, food, drink, music and don’t forget Battlefield South. So if you are getting withdrawal symptoms or just would like to have a couple of laser battle games, with replica weapons come and join us.
