Ryde Rotary’s annual major fundraising event Party on the Green that is taking place at Eastern Gardens, Ryde on Saturday 30th July from midday to 6pm.
Traditionally this has been a three-day event, but having had to cancel 2020 and 2021 due to Covid it was felt appropriate to hold a one-day event this year and build up again to three days in future years.
There will be a programme of arena acts, including Ryde Carnival, Island Dance Studio, David Randini (children’s entertainer), Bloodstone Border Morris Dancers, Geoff Giles (singer/guitarist).
As well as all those, there’ll be face painting, children’s games, rides, donkeys from the Donkey Sanctuary, tombola, craft stalls, barbecue including veggie options and tea tent serving teas, coffees, soft drinks and homemade cakes.
Fundraiser for good causes
Party on the Green is run entirely by volunteers (Ryde Rotarians, partners and friends) and all the net proceeds go to local charities and good causes on the Island.
Ryde Rotary has been supporting the local community since 1925 as part of the worldwide organisation Rotary International that has over two million members in 200 countries.
Support from Ryde Town Council
The event is again supported by Ryde Town Council who have generously given Ryde Rotary a grant for marketing and supported us in several other ways for which we are most grateful.
