Pretty Lights

There were many whizzes, bangs, ooohh's & aaaahhh's on offer during the evening of Friday 4 November 2011 at your Kilham Playing Field.

The 2nd bonfire & firework spectacular was held & was a flaming success (ha ha !). Over 800 people came & experienced an assault on the senses by the plethora of fireworks, as well as marvelling at the towering inferno that was the bonfire (which may still be chugging along at the time of writing).

The bar & food all seemed to be enjoyed by many, with a great night being had by all. The new play / fitness equipment also got a thorough work-out by hordes of Brian Jacks wannabees (for those younger than this writer, just Google "Brian Jacks Superstars" & learn about the true use of the word 'LEGEND').

Are a few pictures below of some pretty lights, plus here is a link to a video of the culmination of the firework extravaganza for those who wish to reminisce (or just see what you missed out on if you didn't come along).

Will hopefully be the 3rd annual bonfire & firework spectacular this time next year & will keep you updated via our website & Facebook pages.

Finally, thanks to everyone who came & supported this event (any profits raised will go toward the continued development of the playing field). Thanks also to everyone who made this happen.

Ciao for now...





Whizz Bang... Ooooh Aaaahhh 2011

Final planning is still being completed, but Kilham Playing Field is proud to be hosting it's 2nd bonfire & firework spectacular on Friday 4 November 2011.

Last year's event was a huge success & this year should be even better. There will be a fantastic bar with a range of beverages available, hot food & many, many whizzing, flashing, banging, exploding "things" to feast your eyes upon.

More details will be posted here soon, but in the meantime:

Gates open: 5:30pm
Bonfire lit: 6:30pm
Fireworks start: 7pm(ish)

Just £2 for adults & £1 for kids.

This will be a truly brilliant event, so will hopefully see you there to join in the fun...

All together now... Ooooohhhh.... Aaaaaahhhhh (probably followed by "Blimey ! That was loud")

Finally, please don't bring any sparklers - the Health & Safety bods won't let us have any :-(

Fancy A Ride ?

Mark Ronson & The Business International made a song about them.

The archives of history (1981) show that The Right Honourable Lord Tebbit inferred that the unemployed should get on one.

And now you can get on yours to help a worthy cause...

Yes, it's back. For the third year in a row. Kilham Playing Field Association are proud to announce that the 3rd annual bike ride returns on Sunday 18 September 2011.

With a choice of distances to challenge you & your friends, ranging from 3 miles up to a daunting (for some) 30 miles, there is something for everyone. All you need is a bike (obviously), a helmet & a willingness to spend some of your Sunday to help raise funds for Kilham Playing Field.

No need to collect any sponsorship, is just a fixed entry free which includes a burger back at The Star pub in Kilham. Is also a great raffle being held once the 3 mile route has finished (around 3:30pm).

More details on the posters below & it would be great if you could join us for this truly fantastic event. Contact us via our website or our Facebook page if you have any questions.
