Well fancy that! 🍻
We are delighted to announce that we raised £10,000 on April 23rd, with thanks to all our supporters. 2,000 people came along on the day - thanks to you all - we hope everyone had a great day!
So that's it! Becky Beer Fest 2016 is over - there's just the break down & clear up to finish in the morning. We are very pleased that so many came and made the day a success. We hope you all had fun! Thanks again to Beaconsfield Rugby Club, to all of our sponsors (most notably Inland Homes, Tripps, Harwood Hutton plus all of our beer & programme sponsors), special thanks to Hall Barn Estate, to all of our great bands and performers, plus Frankie for organising it all, the Community First Responders and all the other organisations who came to support us today. To all of our generous volunteers - whether it was setting up, marshalling, serving behind the bars and token kiosk, driving the shuttle bus, clearing up - we couldn't have done it without you! We want to give a special shout out to Sam and Ian from The Whippet Brewing Co. who came down from Leeds and ran the bar all day, providing us with their expertise, can't thank you enough. We are so grateful to cartoonist Matt Pritchett for the cartoon that really launched the festival, many months ago! Thank you to Jonathan Harris for giving his time for our design & print work. And to Darren and his staff in the clubhouse - great job guys - thank you all. Thank you to Russell Grant for taking time out of your busy schedule to give your support. Thank you to Dick Smith, our Town Crier for spending your birthday with us! Thank you to Volf :) And not forgetting the weather Gods for smiling on us - though a bit warmer would have been fantastic! But most of all thanks to the members of the public who came along and made the day very special. I hope we have not forgotten anyone - but it's late and we are very tired - so please forgive us if we have! Johnno & Amanda
