Lions Clubs International - Halesworth Lions ClubOrdinary People doing Amazing Things |
Wings and Wheels started several years ago when the Lions of Halesworth were asked to take over
the Walpole Car Rally, and from then on it has become much bigger and better,
with many more aircraft landing, and far more activities to interest all the
family.
The event is always held on the second Sunday in May every year in Henham Park, just off the A12 and close to Halesworth and Southwold.
This year’s event will be supporting HELP FOR HEROES, for your entertainment we have;-
We try to bring something different to Wings and Wheels each year so along side the amazing flying display, hundreds of vintage and classic vehicles we have four life size talking and walking DALEKS, (www.charity-dalek.co.uk “Now also on Facebook”) keep your wits about you, as you never know quite where they will be!!
Also for the first time we have a live band TOUCHDOWN, playing throughout the day, they will be beside the bar, what better way to watch all that’s happening than listening to good music with a pint in your hand.
Dog lovers can watch the LOWESTOFT DOG AGILITY CLUB put their canine companions through their paces, or maybe Raptors and Snakes are more your style, come and meet them at the SEAL AND BIRD RESCUE TRUST display area.
The flying display hasn’t been confirmed yet, but there will be hundreds of small aircraft landing throughout the day,(in previous years we have landed more aircraft in an hour than Heathrow and Gatwick),What better place to watch aircraft land and take off than the beautiful surroundings of Henham Park,
If planes aren’t your cup of tea how about a miniature train ride with the HALESWORTH AND DISTRICT ENGINEERING CLUB, or just meander among the amazing variety of cars and other vehicles and find out about their history from the owners.
This is only a taster of what is happening this year, as more is confirmed we will update you.
