2 CAR PARKING DISABLED PARKING: A number of the parking spaces on the Lye Field have been reserved for disabled drivers. ADDITIONAL PARKING : this is available at the top end of Spout Lane in the field opposite Egypt Farm. If approaching Seend from the Devizes direction, go straight on at the Seend Fork traffic lights, through Sells Green, and turn left just before the Three Magpies. Continue up Spout lane - caution at the canal bridge - until you see the Fete Parking sign. From here it is a short walk through The Lye to the Fete area. It would be appreciated if local residents driving to the Fete would park on the Spout Lane car park (accessible from the High St.), leaving the Lye Field for visitors unfamiliar with the village. Seend Post Office and Village Stores National Lottery Wines Beers and Spirits Cigarettes and Tobacco Groceries Fresh fruit and Vegetables Newspapers and Magazines Don t forget your lottery ticket on Fete day!

8 The time has come, the Walrus said to talk of many things... Had he lived in or close to Seend, one of the things would have been the Seend Summer Fete, the principal social event in the village. And there is certainly a lot to say about it. The Fete has two purposes: to bring together villagers and visitors for an afternoon of traditional English Summer Fun; and to raise muchneeded funds for the care and maintenance of the Lye Field and Pavilion, both owned by the village. The Summer Fun is what the Fete Committee strives to provide, helped and supported by a small army of volunteers and helpers, without whom we simply could not continue. This year, as in the past, we will provide the amusement, entertainment and refreshment that will ultimately lead to the attainment of contentment, as you wend your weary but happy way home. We ve managed it in the past (despite the occasional drop of rain!), and I have no doubt we ll manage it again this year come rain or shine... The other important purpose is fund-raising to support the vital maintenance work that keeps the Field and Pavilion in such good shape throughout the year. For example, just this year the following work has been done, supported by the record receipts from last year s Fete: Replacement d/glazed windows 5,500 (work in progress) Roof structure repairs 4,500 (completed June 2007) Replacement interior lighting 1,000 (completed June 2007) Last year s fete raised just over 6,500, thanks in part to the good weather, and the generosity of our programme advertisers and sponsors. But the biggest and best contribution came, as always, from you! Your evident enjoyment of the festivities, your enthusiasm for the event, your wonderful good-humoured support for all the activities, this was the best reward of all. This is what makes our task so worthwhile. Of course we re very grateful for your money, but make no mistake, your enjoyment has always been, and will continue to be, the principal purpose behind our Fete. This year I hope you have the best time ever. Bernie Prolze, Chair Fete2007

19 Treasure Hunt Follow the clues and at each stall collect a letter. In the right order they ll lead you to treasure. Clue number one will help set your pace, the start of your trail is at the four-legged race. The second clue is easy for girls and for boys, to find it go search on the stall with the toys. Clue number three is at the stall of your dreams, look high and look low where a man sells ice creams. Jump as high as you can on the wobbly floor, have bouncy fun where you ll find clue number four. For clue number five a steady hand and some luck, is just what you ll need to fish for a duck. Up, up and away higher and higher, check out clue six if you re a budding young flyer. For clue number seven you ll need green finger powers, this one is hidden on the stall with the flowers. Ride on this engine and you won t be late, at the end of the track you will find clue number eight. Robin Hood would do well when it comes to clue nine, with a bow and an arrow you re doing just fine. Cuddly and cute look for a bear with no name, find clue number ten here to complete the game. You have all the clues collected letter by letter, they spell out the stall where you ll find the treasure. The answer is With Thanks to Jane Borwell
