Hey – if you’re looking out for stuff to do this weekend, look no further than Brownhills Activity Centre (The old Central Boy’s School, or Annex to my generation) and Holland Park this Saturday.

For a few months now I’ve heard people lament the passing of Brownhills Carnival – but I can honestly say I don’t think there have been so many local events here in one summer before. We’ve had music, canal and boat festivals, fun days… you name it. This weekend there’s a fun day at the Activity Centre and the It’s a Knockout Competition at Holland Park – right over the road. Details of both are on the flyers at the foot of this post.

The Community Fun Day at the Activity Centre has lots of great stuff to see, do and get involved with, and while you’re there you can check out all the other interesting stuff Brownhills Community Association do – from IT classes to coffee mornings.

Then the following weekend, it’s Brownhills Music Festival.

Last year the ‘It’s a Knockout’ event took place in Pelsall and was a great day out, by all accounts. Registration is still open for teams of five or more (I had a word with Ranjit Kaur who said they could fit in late applicants, ignore that bit on the flyer)  and entry costs £20 with proceeds going to the Air Ambulance Charity. What’s not to love?

This really has panned out to be a great community summer…

One day… two great events!

Why not print a few out and spread them round?
