    Subject: Southwark Park Bandstand 2007 Summer Concert Programme

    Hello!
     
    Just a little reminder that the second of the seven summer concerts from the Bandstand in Southwark Park will take place on Sunday 10th June. Following a fantastic curtain raiser to the season by the Bromley Concert Band, the June 10th concert will see a return visit by the Beckenham Concert Band under conductor Philip Emery.
     
    Later in the season we'll see performances by the Greenwich Concert Band (June 24th, which is also "LOVE PARKS WEEK" - June 16th to 24th, further information can be found on www.loveparksweek.org.uk ), the Croydon Symphonic Band on Sunday 22nd July, the first visit to Southwark Park by the Band of the Surrey Yeomanry on 5th August, Southwark's very own Southwark Concert Band, lead by the "legend" that is Bob Bridges with take to the bandstand on 19th August and to close the season the Titanic Syncopators with fill the air with the sounds of 1920's jazz on Sunday 2nd September.
     
    As ever these concerts are totally free thanks to funding from the Rotherhithe Community Council, so turn up, grab a deckchair (or an upright), sit back and take in both the music from the elegant bandstand and the beautiful surroundings of Southwark Park, the boroughs only Green Flag Award winning park. Better still bring a picnic (but no barbeques) family and friends - ALL WELCOME!
     
    The concerts commence at 2:00pm and conclude at 4:00pm.
     
    Just one last favour, could you please distribute this information to any contacts as Marjorie, Christine, June, Debbie and myself can't get posters to all, due to work commitments.
     
    Other events at the Bandstand:
    • July 6th - Southwark Schools Day
    • July 7th - Bermondsey Carnival/ The Event - Miss this at your peril, it's "The Event" of the year and has been since 1900!
    • July 8th - Our Big Picnic - Come and see all the excitement of  the Tour de France 2007 pre-race show as it comes along Jamaica Road in Bermondsey and Rotherhithe en route to the start in Greenwich. Then head across the road to Southwark Park for a packed afternoon of events which include from the Bandstand the legendary Chas & Dave, Geno Washington and the Ram Jam Band and the South London Jazz Orchestra (organised by Southwark Events and Bermondsey Beat) You can also follow the Race on a giant screens.
    See you at the Bandstand!
     
    All the best.

    "Rotherhithe Bike Magic Day" on 4 March 2006 (Saturday) + Bicycle Security Advice & Registration (Updated @ 21-4-2006)

     

     

     

    This "Multi-Agency" Community-Building event [ involving Safer Southwark Partnership (London Fire Brigade, Metropolitan Police & Southwark Council), Southwark Cyclists, Local Businesses & Residents, ... ] that helped promote "Cycling" (for Healthy Living, Sports & Leisure) and "Community Safety".  Some 100+ attendees from Rotherhithe & beyond (Brixton, Greenwich, Peckham, Richmond, ...)  have enjoyed the event and there were many "Happy Faces (Organisers and Spectators).

    The objectives of the Event Organisers seemed to have been achieved and more.  Many attendees have sought professional advice on cycling (Training for Beginners, Cycle Routes & Clubs) as well as how to combat Bicycle Crime (some have lost no time in registering their bicycles and getting their security stickers). Some organisers were particularly pleased to see the "Young Visitors" from nearby places like Brixton and Peckham who reportedly would never have otherwise set foot in Rotherhithe.  One Young Cyclist was positively excited to have seen Tower Bridge and The City of London from across River Thames at King's Stairs Garden during an "Easy Local Bicycle Ride for Everyone" - which is a "New World" to him !  The event was well-covered by the Press and Media.  Reporters from BBC and South London Press were on site as well as a Media Student who is doing a documentary on the event.      Some photos taken on the day with specific caption for each photo are available for free public access by via the web link : http://www.flickr.com/groups/southwarkcyclists/ follow by clicking "The group pool" link on the right of the screen and then click open the photo you wish to view with its caption.   

     
    All best wishes

    Dear Friends
     
    Just a reminder for the "ROTHERHITHE BIKE MAGIC DAY" on 4 March 2006 (Saturday) from 11:00am to 5:00pm.  Looks like we are going to have sunny blue sky for a fun and action-packed day for all to enjoy.  I hope you will be attending and/or help to "Spread The Words" to your other contacts who may be interested and benefited from this FREE event.  Please find below an extract of my 21-2-2006 email with information for this event for your easy reference.  Please also see below some additional information that may be of interest:
     
    1)    Good News for those who do not have Bicycles but wish to join in fun for one or all 3 of the Easy Local Bike Rides
     
    There will be 6 free bikes to borrow on the day on a "First Come First Serve Basis".
     
    2)    To Show your Support and perhaps also Join in a Photo Shoot for Press and Publicity
     
    Around 12:00 midday, when the cyclists return from the first Easy Local Ride and for the start of the first Stunt Bike Demo Show  may be a good time to turn up in BIG number to lend your support and perhaps even get included in a group photo for the press, etc.  It is my understanding that at least South London Press will be around for photo shoot at that time.
     
    3)    Useful Web Links for  Information
     
    a)    "ROTHERHITHE BIKE MAGIC DAY" Event Flyer

    4)    Press, Publicity & Media
    -  5,000 flyers from Southwark Council being sent round everywhere.
