In October we will be embarking on a Renewal Programme with the theme “There’s More to Church Than Sundays”. As part of the programme we have arranged to take a party away for a Parish Weekend at Ashburnham Place near Battle, East Sussex. This will take place over the weekend of 22nd/23rd/24th October 2010. Full details can be found in the leaflet.

Our Redbourn 900 Finale celebrations begin with a superb concert on Saturday 11th September at 7.30 pm at St Mary’s Church by the Canticle Chamber Choir - “Music in Praise of Mary”.
On 12th September, following our final Festival Eucharist at 10.30 am at St Mary’s, we shift our focus back to the Common for the final events of Redbourn 900 celebrating Redbourn’s historical heritage including cricket, hats, buzzers and tea! Reputedly one of the earliest cricket clubs in the country, some of the village’s 150 cricketing children will participate in a tournament, coached by celebrities including former England Cricket Captain, Mike Brearley. Then it’s time to get our buzzers ready as we judge the village’s singing, dancing and variety acts in our very own ‘Redbourn’s Got Talent’. Watch these events sporting your very own straw hat with teacup in hand as Redbourn recreates its very own Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, celebrating Redbourn’s Brooke Bond Tea Factory heritage and harking back to when the reeds from the River Red were used for straw plaiting for the hat industry. Join us in attempting to break a Guinness World Record for dancing in hats on the Common, as a release of balloons signals the start of our tenth century. |
