BUSINESSES and individuals are being invited to sponsor a barrel at a Beer Festival in Culcheth on September 17.
The Rotary Club is organising the event at Culcheth Sports Club. It will feature about 30 real ales and sponsors will be able to advertise their details on barrels.
Funds for charities will be raised by the event and it will feature entertainment by local bands.
Rotary has two further events planned at the sports club – a Houghton Weavers evening on September 2 and a Thorntons Chocolate Evening hosted by members of Inner Wheel on Friday November 18.
Members collected funds for the Rotary Shelter Box scheme at the recent Culcheth Community Day. The boxes, costing £500 each, contain a 10-person tent, cooking utensils, basic tools, blankets and children’s toys.
A Rotary spokesperson said: “We now know that the 10 boxes supplied by our club are to be found in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Haiti, the Philippines, Kenya and the Dominican Republic.
“Air lifted immediately to disaster areas, these boxes result from a UK Rotary initiative which has afforded emergency shelter to many thousands of people worldwide. Two more boxes have been purchased and will shortly be deployed.”
The club also has an active social life and recent events have included walking and boating in Llangollen. Meetings are on Tuesdays at Birchwood Golf Club and anyone interested in finding out more should contact Bernard Groom on 01925 733893.
