Event organisers Duncan Brown and Peter Cole said the day will be packed full of fun activities for all ages with heaps of rides, a giant slide, fairy floss, jumping castle, clowns, dunking machine and hovercraft demonstrations.
Mr Cole said there will a local band and bagpipes to entertain the adults and a barbecue and spit roast to keep everyone’s hunger at bay.
Mr Cole said funds will go to the senior team as it has progressed to division one this year and there was a lot of costs and expenses for the move.
