We will be attending the MLE musical display at Broughton hall on the 20th of September with the society stand this year.

 

If you want to help out manning the stand please let me know ASAP.

 

Or if you want to come along and show some support for our society secretary 'Cooperman' (Optimum fireworks) who will be entering the competition, that would also be great.

 

Free entry and camping for volunteers :)

Hoping to get up to watch Steve. Not sure I can escape for the full day.

What time are you wanting volunteers from ?

Will be otherwise engaged I'm afraid, but would recommend these events - always fun.

 

You will meet lots of firework friendly people & help the UKPS - give it a go!

I'm actually hoping to be there Saturday helping crew with Phil but if I get chance I could pop over to the stand and man the fort

Sounds like I dodged the twilight bullet on that one then. I'll definitely be there next Saturday and if I get any chance I'll pop over for a few minutes to the stand

Looks like we have got a pretty good turn out for this .... if it rains we might even get a few people visit the stand !!!! :D

 

Don't wanna spoil the surprise but apparently Phil was seen buying 3 packets of coloured sparklers earlier this week !!!!

I will be there with the family in tow.  Won't be able to man anything I'm afraid as we won't get there until late, but I will try and see anyone that is around :)

Please peeps try & get some good photos and notes of what occurs.

 

I will be doing Spark before long & would be nice to have an article about this written by someone who was there...
