Queen's 90th Birthday Celebration

 

The Hilton Village Hall Committee are in the early stages of planning a special event to commemorate and celebrate the Queen’s 90th Birthday.  In line with some of the national events planned we are hoping to have our own Village Street Party on Sunday 12th June so please put the date in your calendar and get ready to party in true Hilton style.  The day's events currently being considered are:-

 

-       Scarecrows – by Royal Invitation

-       Themed floral displays

-       Fancy Dress Parade – young and old

-       Bruce’s real steam train rides

-       Bring & Share Picnic/Afternoon Tea on the Green

-       Teas & soft drinks available

-       Activities for the children

-       Music

-       Illuminations

-       Evening fireworks

 

The final plan for the day has not yet been finalised but we wanted to give you all enough warning to start thinking about your floral displays/scarecrows/fancy dress costumes/illuminations – that’s got you wondering.  Further information will be available shortly here and in future editions of Spectrum
