Super Saturday!

We've decided to rename Saturday 21st September 2013.....Super Saturday! Why? Well, that's simples! There's so much happening in Bearwood!


Over at Sandon Road Methodist Church between 11.30am - 2.30pm, they're having a Table Top Sale. Cakes, jewellery, handicrafts, refreshments, second hand items etc. Lovely jubbley! Entry fee is only 20p (what does that buy you nowadays, eh?).

Then from 10am – 4pm at St Mary's Church Hall, Smethwick Heritage Centre are holding their Bearwood...Past, Present and Future Roadshow in association with Lightwoods House and Warley Woods. There will be exhibits of Bearwood past including photographs of the shops along Bearwood High Street, Midland Red, British Pens, Eclipse, Haws, Herbert James VC, photos of the old Warley Woods Abbey and an oral history display.

The Sandwell Council Parks Team who have been working on the historic restoration of Lightwoods Park and House will also be displaying the future Heritage Lottery funded plans for the park and house along with some of the history of the site. Entry is FREE too!

In the evening, head over to the Bear Tavern for musical mini fest Bearwoodstock. The Beorma Morris Dancers kick off the afternoon at 3.30pm and all day wristband entry is only £6. With money raised going towards their chosen charity, Stroke, what's not to like!

Here's a taster from Ska Tribute band, 2-Tonics, to get you in the mood....
