Hi all,
I can confirm that the salsa dancers will attend, they are happy to do a few
dances, then a workshop for all ages to join in, if that's ok.
Also, on the 23rd Spurs are playing, so it may be a tad busy.

Hi everyone,
Thanks to Roy, Charmaine, Jo, Kamila and Laurence for coming along to the
street party meeting on Tuesday. Please find notes from the meeting below.
The next meeting will be on Tuesday 23rd April at 8pm in The Coppermill.
If you put your name down to help out on the bar, on any other activity (on

Have a great Easter break,
Nicky

objections were received (hooray!) and lots of offers of help.
Logistics
2. Roy has volunteered to run the electricity from his house.
3. John, Martin, Debbie & David have all volunteered to help out
on the bar. We need someone to coordinate the honesty bar and others who can
help out, when needed, on the day.
4. The fridge used for last year’s bar is now being used by
Calabash Kitchen at The Coppermill. Roy to ask Lamoud if we could borrow it
for the day.

supplied the bouncy castle last year. Also enquire whether they rent out
water slides.

two more; decide when we know outcome of council funding as quite expensive.
12. Laurence can bring football net from school and organise
mini-tournament or Beat The Goalie game.
13. Stocks were suggested at the last meeting but no-one could
recall if someone owned these already! If we can find the stocks, Roy to
organise celebrity masks (for wet sponge throw).

to ask Nicola. Could have a few people doing this and buy some face paints/
brushes for party supplies.

there a way to get number of entrants up this year?

neighbours..
