Volunteers needed

Pinner Panto committee are looking for volunteers to help stewarding on the evening of the 29th November.

If you can only spare 1 hour that would be wonderful!. I personally look forward to stewarding each year – especially the zebra crossing duty.

If you are able to help, leave a message/comment with your name, email address and/or phone number and we will forward it to the organising committee.

 

Tombola Appeal – Harrow In LEAF

I have received an email from Harrow in LEAF. This is for the annual show at Headstone Village Show on Monday 27 August.

 

 

Tombola Appeal  
Do you or your friends and family have any unwanted new or “in good condition” used items that could be donated for our popular Tombola Stall? 

We do need a few more items to top up the Harrow in LEAF table this year, or even donate some plants for us to sell on.

If so, please contact Diana on 020 8863 7558 to discuss delivery or collection.
 
 

Area Leaders Wanted!

The Pinner Association is in need of a new Area Leader, the link between our many Collectors and our Membership Secretary. As there are too many Collectors for one person to handle, Pinner is divided into five areas.

Not only is it an essential task – without the Area Leaders The Villager could not be delivered – but it is also an interesting task, and I can vouch for this, as I was one once. I got to know many local people, whom I may not otherwise have met, all of whom, are of course, most charming or they would not have volunteered to be Collectors in the first place!

If you are already a Collector you will be aware of your Area Leader’s existence because of the thrice-yearly visits with the magazines and the wherewithal to collect the subs. Why not move up the hierarchy and become an Area Leader?

His or her duties involve delivering the Villager magazine three times a year to the Collectors, ensuring that all the subs are eventually collected and keeping a record of the subs, which the Collectors will have paid into the Bank. (You do not have to handle the money.) Having a computer is an advantage. Also a car is really essential as distributing several hundred Villagers can be a weighty task. That said, one Area leader has trained her Collectors to collect their Villagers from her!

Volunteers should form an orderly queue outside Jill Cock’s house at any time, but possibly phoning 8868 5795 or emailing [email protected] might be easier.

 

Annual Wheelbarrow Race – Volunteers Needed!

In case you are wondering, it’s not to take part in the wheelbarrow race but to help with stewarding! This is for 22 April.

For health and safety reasons, they need to have approximately 16 stewards for the Wheel Barrow Race and the Pinner Rotary Club can provide about 10 of these. So they need about 6 more for the duration of the race.

Basically all they need is to be able-bodied and to be available for 25 minutes from 2:30 to 3:15 pm.    Plus you will get a great view of the race.

If you are able to help, contact

Volunteers Needed for Harrow In LEAF Show (28 August 17)

Are you able to Help?

 

 

Tombola and Raffle Prizes required:

One of our popular “village show” features is our tombola situated on our own Harrow in LEAF stall in the show grounds. We are asking you to donate as many as-new items that you can. They must be suitable as prizes in our tombola game, in which tickets are pulled from our historic tombola drum for instant prizes.

We also run a big prize raffle on the day, where the prizes are on display in the Great Barn. Raffle tickets can be purchased throughout the afternoon. If you could donate or sponsor a Raffle Prize (flower basket/bouquets, events, make over, restaurant meals, events, box of delights etc) we would be most appreciative and any local businesses can include a card/leaflet promoting themselves with the prize.

Another traditional “Village Show” prize that we provide is a “food hamper“. So we are also asking you if you could donate any in-date items for our volunteers to use to make up a nice prize for some lucky Harrow resident. Bearing in mind the Show is on the 28th August 2017.

If you can help with any of the above then please contact Diana on 020 8863 7558

Volunteers to help with loading and carrying tables, or repairing wooden tables

It would be most helpful if we could get some more volunteers to help on the Sunday before and days after the show to load/unload our tables/show items on and off our transport vehicles.

We also require practical people to help sort and repair our wooden trestle tables in the weeks before the show.

If you feel that you would like to do more and get involved then please contact Judy for further information  on 0208 427 2772.
