It's depressing to see how little support the seemingly popular village Gala has. Not many come to our fundraisers, very few offer to help us set things up. And, now we we need a new team, it seems like nobody wants to do it. We warned everyone via the Village Link that the Gala was in danger of closing due to lack of support. We had a well publicised AGM but, again, had really poor support.
So why continue?
It's a good question. I've been on the Committee for 5 years and have really enjoyed it. I know that all the kids enjoy it. I know that most adults enjoy it. So why will it stop? Apathy? Lethargy, commitment worries?
I don't even know if anyone reads this any more. Still, the Gala has one more chance of survival. One more glimmer of hope. If you want a Gala, then come to the next meeting at the Gellet Hall on Nov 29th at 19:30. Put your name forward and join the Committee. Or else no more Gala day, Raft Race, Pet Show or Fancy Dress. And who will you have to blame? Think about it!
