Well done Bagshot!!

2 November, 2014 by tinacarney

A great evening was had by all in Bagshot on Halloween!

Well done to all the businesses who opened their doors to the Trick and Treaters! It was amazing to see all the wonderful costumes of the children and the adults!! Most places ran out of treats by 5pm, so next year I think they will be doubling their buckets!

We are already planning next year’s Halloween event – it will be a Saturday and so much easier to prepare for, so…………… watch this space!!

Thank you to everyone who came and supported the event. If you have any photos you would like to share, please upload them to the Bagshot Village Facebook page !!!

On the Eve of Halloween …. it begins ……..

30 October, 2014 by tinacarney

…… and so it begins …… Halloween Eve ….. when Bagshot starts to develop an orange glow – dark shadows and spooky goings on!

Tomorrow from 4.30 – 5.30pm the businesses in the village centre will open their doors to bats and cats, ghouls and ghosts, vampires and Draculas, witches and wizards, pumpkins, mummies and skeletons ….. and will be asked those immoral words ‘Trick or Treat!!!

All adults must be accompanied by at least one child.

Are you brave enough to enter Bagshot?

Children don’t forget your ‘thank yous’ and make sure your adult does not eat too many sweeties!

And while you are wandering around …. see how many owls you can spot!!

Have fun and stay safe!!

hid themselves around Bagshot for Easter

– well now the owls have decided it’s their turn!!

Bagshot Halloween Owl Hunt 2014!!!!

During the October half term week – 48 owls will be in the windows of shops and businesses in Bagshot Village Centre. Can you help to find them all? At the moment they are preparing for flight, as there are still a couple of checks to be carried out but hopefully they will all be out and about by Monday tea time. Entry forms are available from ALBOE and Howlands in the High Street or you can write 1 – 48 on a piece of paper and write the names of the owls next to the numbers. You can then hand it back into ALBOE (with a £1 entry fee please), which goes towards the prizes and printing costs. Any surplus donations will go to Harper Asprey Wildlife Rescue. Make sure your name, email address and contact number are on your form before you hand it back. Closing day in 4pm Friday 7th November and winners will be announced at about 4pm on Saturday 8th November at the end of the ALBOE Re Opening day. The new Harper Asprey Wildlife Rescue fundraising corner will also be unveiled that day!!

Dear All,
A well structured town/village centre partnership is an excellent way of designing and delivering sustainable projects which are beneficial to the town/village centre and wider economy.
An effective partnership will engage with local business owners, residents, visitors and key stakeholders creating an overarching action plan for the locality and all the partnerships within it.
Towns Alive have a lot of experience in both working with town centre partnerships and helping create and establish them.
Senior Consultant Mike King will be running a workshop at the Bagshot Library, on Monday 27th October, 2014 at 7.30 pm. The workshop will cover:
• The importance of town centre partnership
• Structure
• Governance
• Leadership
• Project Delivery
• Action Plans
If you are interested in finding about more and attending the event please contact Valerie White on 07970 114 760 or email valerie.white28@virgin.net

Yours faithfully,
Bagshot Business Association
