To celebrate 60 years of the reign of HM Queen Elizabeth II you are invited to celebrate in true 1950’s style with a Jubilee Picnic on Saturday 2nd June 2012 in the grounds of Donington On Bain School followed by the Jubilee Bop in Donington On Bain Village Hall.

Jubilee Picnic - Bring your own food and drink, maybe themed to the 1950s. Games and lots of fun for all the family

Jubilee Bop –Dance to the sounds of the 50s - come in your glad rags (50s style would be great). Accompanied children welcome

And then on Sunday 3rd June 2012 Benniworth village invites everyone to a Jubilee Sports Day.
