It is getting close to the Festival, arrangements are as last year, camping is from the Friday to the Monday morning with a minimum donation of £10 per unit of up to 4 persons. Vehicle access on both Saturday and Sunday will by 10am and no exiting until after 5pm except in an emergency. Please use 4 ways and do not exceed 10mph whilst on the field. All late arrivals will have to find parking space in the car park and pay at the ticket machines.
Kent Kite Flyers will be as usual parked at the bridge end of the field, with campers at far end.
Most of the field will be properly cut, with a section towards the river bank ( which is where the environment work was being carried out), rough cut.
As stated previously this festival has been renamed in memory of Ron Dell and there is hoped to organise on both days around 3pm a fly of Kiteability kites in memory of both Ron and his wife Pat.

Bringing this to the top. I have been to Teston to-day (2nd August) to put up posters. The ground seems to be in good condition, although the area which is rough cut is uneven underfoot, so be careful if you find yourselves in the rough cut grass over towards the river. Details are as previously posted.

Please note that on Friday morning, I will be at Teston Country Park, where reception for my mobile and the internet is very poor. I shall not be near a computer after then. Any questions please contact me by 10pm Thursday night- wet weather gear as well as sun cream, mixed weekend weather wise ( there does not seem to be agreement amongst the weather forecasters, just like the weather unsure)

We invited them to come at Martin's funeral. They said they might well do, but I only saw a confirmation on facebook yesterday. Skunk was also threatening to come.
I will only be making a fleeting visit on Saturday, probably with a lot of dog. See you all Sunday, weather permitting.
