2020 COMMEMORATIVE BADGES
With this years membership being carried over until October 2021 due to the cancellation of all of our fundraising and bonfire events we have decided to release two commemorative badges to mark the extraordinary year that wasn’t!
Each badge will cost a minimum donation of £2 which will help raise money towards Newick Bonfire 2021 and they are on sale in shops and pubs around the village.
Badges can be sent by post with additional postage costs. Please message us via our Facebook page for details.
Thankyou for your support, we will be back!! 🔥
Day Membership? Vice President? Full membership?
We keep the cost of Day Membership low because we like to see as many people as possible in our Fancy Dress Competition and Processions but would like to remind you that for a minimum donation of £12.50 per person (£25 per family) per year you can become a Vice President with all the benefits of Day Membership plus occasional newsletters and a complimentary Programme featuring your name as a printed acknowledgement. VPs are highly valued financial supporters and are not expected to help in any other way.
Of course if you would like to help with preparations and fund raising and/or visit other societies’ bonfire nights we would love to welcome you as a Full Member. There are many different jobs so come along and join the team. We especially want to attract some more younger members as some of us are not finding the physical tasks as easy as we did! Adults pay £13 per year and under 18 years £6 (must be accompanied by an adult member at all times).
Lately our fund raising events have been less well supported so we are relying even more on membership revenue. The Village Green gives our night a unique atmosphere but is a public space and we are unable to charge admission fees so we would like to encourage all residents of Newick and everyone that visits and enjoys the amazing spectacle that is Newick Bonfire Night to pay for their evening by becoming Vice Presidents or Full Members. For details see the Join Us page!
Do you enjoy Newick Bonfire Night?
Join Newick Bonfire Society
By joining Newick Bonfire Society and becoming an active member you can help to create the amazing spectacle that is Newick Bonfire Night. New members are always made to feel welcome and helping to organise our Bonfire Night isn't just hard work, it's fun and exciting. Prior to the night you could be involved in setting up The Green, making and dipping the 4000 torches required for our amazing torchlit processions, collection of bonfire materials and helping to build one of the only traditionally built bonfires in Sussex. Then on the night running torches, stewarding, crowd marshalling and being part of this amazing tradition. However being part of one of the best Bonfire Societies in Sussex isn't all hard work. Other weekends during the Bonfire season we dress up and become part of the torchlit processions ourselves, visiting other societies' celebrations throughout Sussex including Lewes on the 5th. Extra help is always needed with fundraising events such as coffee mornings, jumble sales and discos etc. So whether you're young or old - everyone can become involved.
