HADE EDGE GALA

Gala plans gather pace………….

Following the fantastic success of the Jubilee Celebrations, plans for the Hade Edge Gala are

rapidly taking shape.

The Gala takes place on 14th July and will begin with Hade Edge Band leading the

traditional procession from the Chapel down Dunford Road at 1.30pm.

The official opening takes place on the football field at 2pm when the King and Queen will be

crowned. There will be the usual stalls, why not have a go on the coconut shy or see if you

can Play Your Cards Right? Dads will want to show their dexterity with the mini digger and

then stare wistfully at the Classic Cars and Tractors. There will be a pig roast, glorious cakes

and some wonderful entertainment lined up. For example at 3pm (weather permitting) there

will be flypast by a Tiger Moth airplane.

Lightfoot School of Dance will perform and we’ll also see a gymnastic display featuring pupils

from Hade Edge School. At 4pm the accordion band will be knocking us bandy with some

barnstorming tunes.

A Toddler Corner will be available as will a Bouncy Castle and of course an Ice Cream van

and a Bar.

It is always a great day for the village but it wouldn’t work without the support of local people.

Please join us on 14th for at least some part of the afternoon and sincere thanks to the many

villagers who contribute to making the gala happen and to making Hade Edge a great place

to live.

Once the Gala has finished villagers are allowed a few hours rest before putting on their

dancing shoes and joining in with the evening party that takes place in the marquees on the

football field from 7pm.

The formula is simple, bring your own food and drink, (although this year the Bar will be open)

and enjoy performances by three local bands, “Jimmy no pants Dare,” “Suilven,” and the al-

most legendary “Hade Edge Collective” who will be knocking out party tunes late into the

night. Entry is by wrist band and these are available in advance from Paul Turner, at the Gala

in the afternoon or on the gate. Bring some friends and come along, feel the noise…..

looking for Teddies for their tombola, Kerry can also collect these, or please drop off at the Pre-

HADE EDGE GALA—PAST TIMES

Here are a few pictures from past Gala’s for you, thank you to Mrs Clayton !

THE HADE EDGE JUBILEE

The Hade Edge Jubilee Event was a fantastic success, it was really well attended, and

we raised just over £1000 for the planter for the village, which is an amazing.

A big thank you to all who attended, we hope you enjoyed yourselves !

A massive thank you to everyone who played a part in this event, ALL the volunteers

and contributors, to “The Collective” for the live music, John Lloyd for the disco music,

DJ Dave and Colin for the Children’s Entertainment. We should be all very proud we

live in a village where people are willing to help out, to make the event possible, and to

create great memories for all those who came !

Of course a BIG thank you to Longleys, Brindons, Millside Heating and the Parish

Council for their financial contributions towards the event.

A special thank you though to Kerry Sykes for organising the event, Helen Craggs for

sorting out the live music and Richard Slack for all his help with the marquee.

JUBILEE PICS !

SPEEDING

The Valleys Police have had a big presence over the last few weeks, to

monitor drivers speed through the village. Many people were booked

for speeding (though unfortunately some of these were from the

village, as picked up by the local Examiner newspaper !)

The statics made available to us from the Police in summary showed

75% of people speeding through the village on one day and 90% the

following.

Obviously this is very concerning to the village, and something must

be done about this before a child is injured or killed.

Speed statistics are now being gathered by equipment currently

installed in the village, which should be available soon.

Kirklees council has also sent a letter to Tate Travel Bus company to

highlight villagers concerns with the speed of their drivers through the

village.

If you have not signed the petition yet, please do so, written petitions

are also available at the Sunday School Hall near the Chapel and the

Bay Horse Pub.

The online petition is found using the address below, or simply type

Hade Edge Speeding Petition into Google !!!

Parish Council, but I would like to say a personal big well done to my

wife Kerry Sykes, for receiving this award, which was featured.

Some of the reasons for this include this newsletter the

NOTICES

PLANTERS FOR THE VILLAGE

The planters have arrived for the village, 2 of which are from

Kirklees Council, which look lovely, a big thank you to Donald Firth

to get this into place, they look lovely.

The planter from the Jubilee is still being planned, details of which

should be available for the Gala !

EXERCISING YOUR DOGS IN THE PLAY GROUND

Can you please dispose of the dog poo bags in a bin, there have been

complaints of used bags in the local fields where animals reside,

which is obviously of concern to the local farmers. Also if you

have a child taking your dog for a walk, please ensure they carry

a bag, and are happy about collecting any waste.

There is a Waste Bag dispenser at the top of the Park (Near the

Playground), if you find this empty, please ring Kerry Sykes on

680235 who has some spare bags for re-fills. Dog poo bags are

also available from either the Parish Council or the Tourist

information office, which are free of charge.

If you have information about a dog walker who fails to pick up,

please report it to the local council or dog warden on 01484

221199 . The person responsible can be issued with a fixed penalty notice, or

prosecuted in the Magistrates Court where a fine of up to £1,000 can be made. If you

are aware of an re-occurring situations, the dog wardens would always appreciate any

photographic or video evidence, which will help them in the prosecution.
