It was fantastic to see the village green come alive in the sunshine for the Otford Great British BBQ on Bank Holiday Monday.    A huge thank you to everyone who helped make it such a success: St Bart’s for keeping us refreshed with tea, coffee, delicious cakes, jams and preserves.The Bull whose incredible inflatable (and momentarily deflatable!) pub was a huge hit! The Methodist Church & Little Treacles Nursery for their brilliant children’s activities and Alice a young village entrepreneur whose handmade bracelets were very popular.   The musical line-up was superb and created a fantastic atmosphere, bringing everyone together with a happy, relaxed vibe.   The biggest thanks must, of course, go to our amazing volunteers. Without you, none of this would have been possible. The BBQ team especially deserve a round of applause for working tirelessly in the heat to keep everyone fed. Thanks also to those who ran the ticket desk, stewarded the event, served ice cream and wine, and helped return the green to its tidy state afterwards. It's wonderful to have so many willing hands to help an event like this run so smoothly.    If you’d like to join in the fun and volunteer at future events, we’d love to have you on the team! Just email volunteers@otfordsociety.org.uk.   We'll be back in two years’ time for the next BBQ on the Green – see you then!

Come and join us on Bank Holiday Monday 25th August for a fun filled day out for the whole community.  For more information, click the button below.  See you there!  CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT MORE
