๐Ÿ”น๐—ฆ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜€ โ€“ We're particularly keen to hear from Saxilby-based businesses who would like to support Family Fun Day. Sponsorship helps us keep the event free to attend and fund the free activities and entertainment that make the day special.

There will be a range of sponsorship opportunities available, so if you'd like to support a community event while raising your business's profile locally, we'd be delighted to hear from you.

Family Fun Day is ๐—ง๐—ข๐— ๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—ฅ๐—ข๐—ช, and we have a very special opening planned!

โœˆ๏ธ At 12 midday, Hurricane PZ865 will take to the skies for a flypast to officially open our Family Fun Day.

PZ865 is no ordinary aircraft. It is a Hawker Hurricane Mk IIC and is the last Hurricane ever built, one of just a small number of airworthy Hurricanes still flying today. It forms part of the RAFโ€™s Battle of Britain Memorial Flight , which keeps these historic aircraft flying to remember those who served and to share their story with future generations.

The Hurricane played a vital role in the Battle of Britain, and seeing this remarkable aircraft flying overhead is a great way to begin our day.

๐Ÿ“… Tomorrow - Saturday 22 August
๐Ÿ•› 12 midday
โœˆ๏ธ Hurricane PZ865 flypast and official opening

Bring your family and friends and join us for a day of fun, memories and a little bit of aviation history.

Weโ€™ll see you tomorrow!
