Also take into account I was trying to get this off the ground without any funding to start with!!

I have contacted over forty Business's in and around Hynburn, Two bit's in the Observer appealing for potential Sponsors as well as contacts I know. Perhaps I could have done more but I have only have so much spare time.

OK, sorry, PR, wasn't having a go at you. I would have quite happily chucked in a tenner, if six others wanted to do the same to have an Accywebbers' sponsored barrel.

Does this mean the event's definitely off on October 31st/November 1st now?

Just to confirm the Beer Festival has been postponed for this year

The Accyweb Sponsored Barrel idea is a very good one Wynonie! one that we can follow up next year
Thanks for that

We will look at putting the Festival back on during the Close Season next Year, It gives us more time to widen the net for potential Sponsors and pursue other avenues to raise funding to get it off the Ground.

There are still things that I would like to look at that can give a spin off benefit for the Supporters & Club alike and I will try to bring those to fruition.

Once again Thank You to Everyone for their interest

Sounds good, PR, and it'll give us something to look forward on one of those long, boring weekends in the close season! Count me in for an Accyweb-sponsored barrel!

Here's one to keep in mind for future ref - free publicity
