OXFORDSHIRE VILLAGE OF THE YEAR COMPETITION

We've just heard that we've got through the first round, and have been invited to take part in the final next Saturday, 4 July.

We now have a week to get our display ready, so any help you can give would be much appreciated: we need flyers, posters, photos, objects - anything you can think of that the team (Keith Milner and two others) can talk to the judges about and convince them that Islip should win a prize.

Our aim is to make the display (table and display board) as varied and exciting as possible, including all ages and interests. We're particularly interested in anything that has been started up or happened in the last two years, when we last took part - but of course any other material will also be very welcome.

Finally, we're looking for at least one volunteer to join Keith on the stand - it's at Yarnton Village Hall next Saturday, 11.30-2pm.
