The joint committee (The Lyminge Association and Pathways To The Past) have committed considerable resources to this fortnight of fun and entertainment and we look forward to everybody enjoying their new found freedom (in a responsible way). THE FULL PROGRAMME AND DETAILS OF MANY OF THE INDIVIDUAL EVENTS CAN BE FOUND INSIDE THIS NEWSLETTER, STARTING ON P2. Besides the extensive programme, there are considerable amounts of information relating to the events and how to engage with them. Some events need booking and so you are encouraged to make your bookings as soon as possible since tickets are limited. In particular the Banquet and the Quiz need to be booked beforehand. For a variety or reasons, we are NOT able to accept payment for these two events on the night and in the case of the Banquet, the cut-off date for booking is 11 June. Finally, we always welcome any feedback and comment which is always useful in steering future events. So, we look forward to seeing you all at some stage over this Festival Fortnight.
