Surlingham

Come and join us for a great night out at the Village Hall tonight! There will be a live band, including local resident Paul Archer, playing Rock ‘N’ Roll music, a licensed bar and hot food including burgers and hot dogs.

You can have a boogie if you want to! Or you can just enjoy listening to the music and chat with friends.

Doors open at 7.30pm, entry is just £6 and you can pay on the door. All profits will go towards funding the Summer Festival which takes place on Saturday 10th September.

It would be great to see you there!

Tickets are selling fast for the Rock ‘N’ Roll evening next Saturday 16th July, so grab yours soon! We are limiting numbers to allow enough space for everyone to be able to move around, chat, drink, eat and show off your rock ‘n’ roll dance moves if you want to!

There will be a live Rock ‘n’ Roll band playing throughout the evening plus a licensed bar and hot food available.

Tickets are just £6 per person and it is better if you can purchase before the night, so that we can guarantee you a ticket. Come and join us for a lively, fun night!

Come and explore the Ted Ellis Trust Nature Reserve, meet its wild inhabitants, enjoy craft activities, sample Forest School and have lots of fun!

The event will be hosted by Wheatfen Forest School, the South Yare Wildlife Group and Friends of the Ted Ellis Trust.

Sunday 10th July 1 – 4pm. £1 per child. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Refreshments available. For more info contact Rose Hoare on 01508 538157.

Every other year here at Padmaloka we open our doors to host the village festival, which we will be doing again this year on Saturday the 10th of September, 11:00 – 15:30.

This year is particularly significant for us, as it marks the 40th anniversary of the founding of Padmaloka. So we are especially pleased to host the village festival this year and celebrate the village and wider community that we are a part of.

We often use Facebook to promote the retreats held here and realised we could also use it to help promote the village festival. With this in mind, we have created a Facebook page for the festival, so if you are on Facebook click on the link below, register your interest and invite your friends and family.

Just to clarify.  The bus timetable in the last post is NOT new, we have just replaced the old Anglian bus timetable with the Simonds one on Surlingham.org.
