Whickham and District May Fayre

A GREAT day out for everyone is promised on Saturday 13th May in Whickham, Gateshead, when the area’s scouts host the May Fayre in the village’s historic Chase Park.

The gates will be opened at midday when the mayor of Gateshead officially opens the fayre.

A wide range of events are planned including arts competitions, music and dancing, raffles, side shows and other games. Many local groups will have stalls.

There is expected to be stiff competition amongst schools for the Lloyds TSB Trophy for sports and the Woodman’s Arms Community Shield for Inter School Five-a-side.

“We are promising a great day out for the whole family,” said fayre organiser Dave Richardson. “The fayre is an annual tradition and everyone is welcome to come along for a relaxing day of fun.”

Gates open at midday on Saturday 13th May.
