SPECIAL INVITATION TO RACE NIGHT, 7.30 pm SATURDAY 10TH JULY

It’s not long now before the first ever Larchfield Festival comes to Desborough Park from Friday 9th to Sunday 11th July. The festival is being organised by River Church with the support of the local council and promises to be a weekend packed with family-friendly fun and games, including a Race Night on the Saturday evening.

We would love to see lots of local people attending this event. So, thanks to a subsidy from MDHA, we would like to offer MDHA residents living on the Larchfield Estate the opportunity to buy tickets for the Race Night at the reduced rate of only £2.50 per person (usually £8 or £5 for groups of 6 or more)!

The ticket price includes a Ploughman’s platter, a drink from the bar plus all that is needed to play at the Race Night. Here’s how the Race Night works:-
• We will be showing films of actual horse races throughout the evening
• You will be given some fun “Larchfield Festival” money at the beginning of the evening
• Place a bet with our Race night hosts on whichever horse you think will win the race
• You will not be betting for real cash
• You can bet on as many horses as you like, as many times as you like
• When all bets have been placed, the race will be shown and the winner displayed
• If your horse is the winner, collect your winnings
• The players with the most winnings over the course of the night will win some fantastic prizes
For Race Night tickets please ring Alejandra Cerrillo on 07789 243009.

For any other information about the Larchfield Festival please leave a message on 07772 889369 and one of the Larchfield Festival team will get back to you.

Hope to see you there!

York Court First Meeting for a Resident’s Association

Wednesday, 07 July 2010, 6:00 pm - Maidenhead and District Housing Association Offices

Community Activities

A residents association is in the process of being set up at York Court, after our consultation BBQ on the 5th of June some resident’s would like one to be set-up to support and fund-raise for a change in the Communal Green Area. Come and find out how to set-up a Residents Association and what benefit it would be to you as a local resident.

What is a Residents’ Association?
A Residents’ Association is a group, made up of local residents who represent the interests of everyone living in a particular area. It plays a large part in dealing with problems that people come up against, as well as organising things like social events. Residents’ Associations are set up for everyone to join. Membership is open to all local residents. Groups do not discriminate against members of the community because of race, age, sexual orientation, disability, religion or gender.

How do Residents’ Associations work?
They meet to talk about the problems in their community like: *Litter *Parking *Vandalism * Dog Fouling

The group may also help to arrange more Children’s Activities or set up a Pensioners Club. They can also arrange Social events.

Why get involved?
It’s an opportunity to meet new people, deal with local and community issues and find out more about how to improve your neighbourhood.

If you are interested in being involved in local issues , come along on the 7th of July to talk to us at MDHA Offices.
