Country fair

Voice logo COMMUNITY WEB

A popular village fair is hoping to showcase eye-catching motorbikes, trikes and scooters at this year’s event.

The classic vehicles on display at Whaplode Drove Country Fair will include tractors and threshing machines.

The fair, which is held at the Elizabethan Centre and is the main fundraiser for it, takes place on Sunday, from 11am to 5pm. Organisers are hoping to top the £3,000 raised at last year’s event.

The theme for this year is scarecrows and there’s a host of craft competitions for adults and juniors.

There are also a display of bygones, craft and produce shows, demonstrations, live music and a funfair.

Food and drink will be available from stalls and a licensed bar.

Committee chairman Mandie Collier said: “It’s free entry to the show and free parking so we’re hoping for lots of visitors.

“There’s great fun for all the family.”
