It was a fine evening for trick-or-treating, and then the very next day the mist rolled in making Knockholt look like the setting for Silent Hill.  Let’s hope the spookiness is behind us as we look forwards to our firework display this weekend!

We’re looking forward to seeing the guy that our primary school children have built, and the huge bonfire it will sit upon.  We’re looking forward to eating fish and chips and burgers, and drinking coffee.  We’re looking forward to putting on our wellies and warm coats.  And most of all we’re looking forward to …

Make sure you get your tickets today – you save money in advance! Full details are available here.

Our second Knockholt Beer Festival was a great success! We welcomed over 150 visitors and raised around £600 for charity. Raising a glass to charity has never been so much fun. Thanks to all who supported this event. A write-up and pictures are on http://www.knockholtcarnival.org.uk/other-events/beer-festival-2015/. Cheers!

Don’t forget it’s the village picnic this Sunday, from 1pm on Knockholt Recreation Ground. This is a free event, open to all residents, family and friends. Bring your own picnic and then enjoy a variety of organised games for children and families which will start from 2pm. There are some water games so bring a towel too!

This wonderful community event, organised by Carole Moody, parish councillor and member of Knockholt Carnival Charities Committee, was a huge success last year and we are sure it will be lots of fun again this time round.  Do come along and join in the fun with your friends and neighbours!

It looks like it’s going to rain on Sunday … but Saturday looks bright and sunny,  so make sure you’re out and about to make the most of it.   Is there anything happening in the village, we wonder.

Yes! Knockstock is back, and we’ve got music and fun for all the family.  Make sure you know how to get tickets, where to park, what time the acts are on, and what to bring … we recommend suncream, a picnic blanket and money for ice creams.  Lots of ice creams!

Of course, we can’t guarantee the weather – but we can guarantee an amazing day out.  We’ll see you there!
