Rougham Control Tower Aviation Museum – Control Tower
Rougham Control Tower Aviation Museum
Last month (April) I posed the question - How many people know we have a piece of aviation history on our doorstep? Well, what a great response! Our first Open Weekend had over 50 visitors and we even opened on the Bank Holiday Monday. A very excited four years old (nearly five) identified a B-17 without prompting and yet a more senior gentleman told of airfield experiences from his childhood. An amazing contrast of youth, spanning some 75 years. r The airfield from the Control Towe ‘Glass House’
Recent visits: Pre-season Welcome – representatives of local businesses, developers from the commercial and residential sites and local councilors enjoyed a tour, slide presentation and light buffet. Members of Bury Abbey Rotary Club also enjoyed a similar evening. Two American visiting groups enjoyed great spring sunshine whilst touring the museum. Our museum commemorates all those service personnel who sacrificed there all for our freedom. There were over 1000 fatalities and in excess of 800 injured linked to the airfield. As visitors leave we see people reflecting on what they have seen and learned. This memorial certainly touches people’s hearts. Our next large event is the Bank Holiday Weekend, Saturday May 27th and Sunday 28th Fly-In ‘Cessna Type’. The Museum will be open both days – and on the Monday. 68 | MAY 2017
So, now to a request for assistance:Three ‘asks. 1) Can you please give any time to help at the museum – we have a list of ‘posts’ volunteering – making and serving tea/coffee (and cake), making cakes, behind the scenes jobs etc? 2) We are having a ‘Mega Draw’ for the 25th celebration year. 25 major and 25 minor prizes – can you please donate a prize? 3) Our main event of the year ‘Echoes of the Past’ will be on Sunday August 6th. If you have a ‘trade stand’, craft stall, military vehicle, classic car or other ‘fundraiser’ and would like to be involved please contact us. (Places limited so please get in touch soon). We are indebted to all our supporters for the help they provide, be it in services or financial sponsorship. We have an open membership window so please come and join us, either as an individual or corporately. The new road development is nearing completion. We hope to have a direct route from the Moreton Hall Estate – Rougham Tower Avenue, within the next few weeks. Please refer to the local press and our website for current information. The following dates already planned. Open – Sundays April 10am – 4pm till 29th October. We are able to offer additional dates and times by appointment. Three main dates - in conjunction with the Airfield (supported by Rougham Estates) and Skyward Flight Training: Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th May Fly-In ‘Cessna Type’ with the Museum open. JUST ADDED – Wednesday 21st June (Longest Day) Airfield Fly-In - Museum open. Sunday 6th August – Museum ‘Echoes of the Past’ This is our main 25th Celebration and will also include an Airfield Fly-In Sunday 17th September – Fly-In ‘Piper Type’ aircraft with the Museum open.

CHURCH NEWS
This means the money goes where it is needed. Christian Aid does not send people as they would have to be cared for and would speak neither the languages of the hosts or refugees themselves.
whats on in
We will be putting envelopes through your doors from 13 May with a note saying when one of our collectors will be calling. Leave your envelope on the doorstep if you don’t want to be disturbed. Thank you for your generosity.
