Rye & District Bonfire Society would like to thank the Mermaid Hotel for their continued support in hosting the annual Auction of Promises to raise funds for this year’s bonfire celebrations, to be held on November 11.
A extra special promise has landed! A voucher for a flight for two in a hot air balloon! Many thanks to SkyBus Ballooning for this wonderful donation!
Launching from Headcorn and Hawkhurst, voucher includes Champagne and Commemorative flight certificate!
Other items are coming roaring in for the auction, including a pillion ride within a radius of 25 miles of Rye on this wonderful custom Harley Davidson “1066 Harley” kindly donated by bonfire society member Mags Ivatt.
Not forgetting the chance to bid for the honour of being Rye Fawkes for the night and be paraded down to the Salts and a chance of a lifetime to light the ‘Nornous Bonfire’ on the night.
We look forward to seeing you all on the night.
