Upchurch is twinned with Ferques-Elinghen in Pas de Calais, France |
The Upchurch Village Fete will be held in the Paddock on the 18th of June where the Twinning Group will once again be hosting the ‘large garden games'. Look for us in Keith Rossiter’s green gazebo - we don’t charge for you to have a go - instead we ask for a donation if you have enjoyed it.
The Twinning Group AGM will be held at Holywell School on Thursday the 23rd of June, commencing at 7:30pm. The committee would like as many from our village to come along as possible. Ann and Jim Harman will put up notices, similar to the notices they put around the village advertising our Quiz Night.

Some of the residents of Ferques will be visiting Ramsgate for the day on the 26th of June they have suggested that any of their Upchurch friends who wish to join them and meet them at their first stop, which is due to be the Spitfire and Hurricane museum at Manston at approx. 10:00am. So far, Mike and Kathy Johnson will go - any one else is of course welcome to join them.
‘A Day of Activities’ Previously called ‘Upchurch Twinning Group Sports Day’ - (Our Secretary and Typist hope you will grant us some artistic licence here, after all - you can hardly call ‘Boules’ a sport!). The date for this event has been agreed by Ferques, the Upchurch Cricket Club and the Twinning Group as being on Sunday the 11th of September. The event will be held at the Cricket Ground.
UpARA have expressed a desire to be kept informed, as they have been practicing Boules at the Golf Club in their car park at the rear of the Pro Shop, also, the old Kentish Pub Game of Bat and Trap - (no running involved, just good hand and eye co-ordination). They would like to issue a Cross Channel challenge to the older residents of Ferques.
Jim Harman has informed UpARA of this and also he will let Christian Finance the chairman of their "Jumelage" (Twinning Group) know, so that he can advise the Senior Citizens of Ferques.
