 We are planning to hold our Christmas Special Event Day on December 5th when we are keeping our fingers crossed that Father Christmas will visit us – socially distanced of course.
There will be bygones, fairground models, Christmas Music (fairground organ) and Christmas crafts. Watch out for further details in November.

A date for your diary: we are planning a run-day event to celebrate the Vickers Petter 100th Birthday on Sunday 26th September 11.00 to 16.00 (Covid Rules permitting). Details will be updated later in the month. The 100 Club results for July: First No 36 Shaw £46.00 Second No. 35 Walton £23.00 Third No. 12 Dewar £11.50 It's not too late to join the 100 Club - only £5 per month (£45 to end of first year - see application form and rules). Sunday July 4th. Following the competition to draw one of our engines entered by pupils from Denver VC Primary School in 2020, 8 of the 12 entrants visited the Museum on Sunday with siblings and parents for a fun afternoon seeing the engines running and taking part in some activities, including 'hunt the tools'. The competition had been judged by local independent artist, Sally Dunham www.sallydunham.co.uk back in September 2020 so that certificates and Museum pens could be sent to all the children who had entered at that time. The three main prize winners collected their prizes, but all the entries were praised - it was very hard to judge them. Well done to Rosie - centre, Jack on the left and Eric on the right!  And here are the prize-winning pictures.  The winners of the June 100 Club Draw were:
1st no. 28 Watts £44 2nd no. 32 (Anon) £22 3rd no. 29 Watts £11 You can still join the 100 Club to help the Museum: a further 2 have joined this month already! It is £5 per month or £50 to the end of the first year. Click HERE to contact us for more details. |
