Raffle ticket draw was held on 4th October 2011 (as
stated on tickets) at Norland Working Mens Club, all winners have been notified. Again the trail sheets competition winner
and the children's picture competition winners have now all been informed.
The following charities have benefited
from funds raised in 2011:- Yorkshire Air Aumbulance Overgate Forget-me-not Trust Hope Ward 7b stroke
unit.
Local groups have also received funds and these are Norland School, St Luke's Church and The Luncheon
Club.
The committee have reserved some funding over the last few years, to provide more equipment in the childrens
park by the moor and are currently in talks with Calderdale Council. We hope we can make this differenc this summer.
Also, you may have noticed our boundary stones; these will be painted very soon.
Whilst we are able to give funding
to various groups, we are mindful to keep enough money in the bank to run the event the following year. The 2012 fesitval
is now in our thoughts and meetings are being held every month, the next one being 22 February 8pm at Ryburn Golf Club.
If you are able to offer assistance and bring something beneficial to the meeting, please email us to offer your services,
you will be warmly welcomed. Also help is always required during the festival weekend. Remember the festival is
for the children and adults to enjoy, to bring the community together, and to raise funds for our village and charities. "Many
hands make scarecrow work"!! Thank you
