Make a Mile of Bunting
Thursday 9th February 2012 Halesworth Library 7pm
+ every second Thursday of the month
Special Daytime Session
Sunday 25th March 2 2012 - 4.30pmHalesworth Library
HinT is joining with the Halesworth Town Council Jubilee Committee, Vision (Mencap), and Skip Bunting to make sure that the town is full of colour for the Jubilee by re-using what we’ve already got in plenty - your old material.
Not just for the Jubilee, also good for the Olympics, summer fetes, school events, and your own back garden.
HinT’s purpose is to support actions that mean our town can meet its energy needs without oil which is more and more expensive, hard to get out of the ground, and damaging to use. So instead of new plastic bunting, we'll be upcyling old material into new. And if we're really going to fill the Thoroughfare, it could take as much as a mile. That's a huge number of pennants to sew.
We'll end up with colourful bunting (not all red, white and blue, Vision is leading on patriotic-coloured pennants) for many events.
Come and cut and sew, and bring us your material :
Take red, white & blue fabric to Vision (Chediston St / Market Place) and anything at all to the Library for HinT.

The wildlife charity the RSPB is appealing to the public to take part in its annual
Big Garden Birdwatch 2012
With well over half a million people submitting their results in 2010, this is one of the the world's largest wildlife surveys.
It could reveal, says the RSPB, what effect a year of "confusing weather" has had on our garden birds.
The event will take place on 28 and 29 January 2012.

Lowestoft's Marina Theatre has announced that the phenomenally successful West End production DREAMBOATS AND PETTICOATS, the smash hit musical inspired by the million selling albums, which comes to the Marina for just one week from February 20th 2012 has already smashed box office records with the Suffolk venue inundated with calls.
The dazzling success of the first three albums in the 'Dreamboats and Petticoats' series sent the message loud and clear. With over 2 millions copies sold and several weeks at the Number One spot in the compilation charts, the Great British public were saying that they didn't just want to listen to pure nostalgia: they'd love to see it as well. Thus 'Dreamboats' was born as a musical, opening at The Churchill Theatre in Bromley in February 2009 to rave critical reviews and widespread audience acclaim. Over a million people have since been enchanted by an evening of pure hedonistic affection for a more innocent era, when love was young and so was rock 'n' roll.
Written by Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran, the team behind Goodnight Sweetheart, Birds of a Feather, The New Statesmen and Shine On Harvey Moon, this spectacular feel-good production, which will play at the Marina for just one week from February 20, promises 'the greatest time of your life' - taking you back to a time when each passing week brought another classic track.
Featuring songs from Roy Orbison, The Shadows, Eddie Cochran, Billy Fury, Chuck Berry and many more, including Let's Dance, To Know Him Is To Love Him, Shaking All Over, Bobby's Girl, Little Town Flirt, Only Sixteen, Sleepwalk, Runaround Sue, Happy Birthday Sweet 16, What A Wonderful World, Let's Twist Again, Let It Be Me and many more hits from music's golden era!
Dreamboats will be the first full scale musical to play at the Marina in over a year and follows the popular venues transition into a charitable trust last December.
People wishing to obtain remaining tickets to see Dreamboats & Petticoats are advised to call the theatre Box Office on 01502 533200.
