SUMMARY:Street Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Buckle up – Street Weekend is back! Bigger\, tougher and meaner than ever! \nAfter 3 successful years\, we’re shaking things up with a new four-day format that’ll see drivers racking up the road miles and hammering 3 different tracks across the weekend. It all starts at Santa Pod Raceway on Day 1\, where each driver will lay down their first time of the event before heading out on the road for a 200-mile haul to Elvington in Yorkshire. After a run there on Day 2\, they’ll be back on the road via a set of checkpoints\, and on to Melbourne Raceway\, setting another time here on Day 3. Just when the drivers and the cars think they’ve had enough\, it’s back on the road\, all the way back to Santa Pod Raceway for the final showdown on Day 4. \nFor 2026\, we’re turning up the heat and throwing in some variety by offering a varying track conditions on each day of the event. \nDay 1 – Santa Pod: 1/8 mile\, fully prepped — nice and grippy \nDay 2 – Elvington: 1/4 mile\, unprepped — unpredictable and spicy \nDay 3 – Melbourne: 1/8 mile\, unprepped — hang on tight \nDay 4 – Santa Pod: 1/4 mile\, fully prepped — go for glory \nThat’ll equate to around 600 miles across 4 days\, mixed conditions and zero excuses. \nWe all know Street Eliminator cars are some of the quickest street-legal machines in the UK… but can they survive four days of punishment and still put down big numbers on totally different surfaces or is their Street Weekend crown be about to slip? \nWe’re about to find out\, and it’s going to be absolutely wild!

SUMMARY:Titchmarsh Fete
DESCRIPTION:It's our annual summer fete – the one with the parachuting teddies!  We have lots going on – Northampton Morris Dancers\, Dynamix Dance\, Kettering Starlight Theatre Group and the Thrapston Line Dancers are all performing in the main arena.  Thrapston Town Band are performing in the Church (acoustics are great in there).  We have a Dog Show and Dog Scurry\, a craft show in the school and the main event is the Parachuting Teddies – this is where children (and adults!) attach a homemade parachute to their teddy and we launch them off the top of the Church Tower at 3.45pm.  The slowest one to descend wins.  Its brilliant fun and now in its 20th year of flying mayhem – we might have lost one or two over the years as they fly off into the unknown!

DESCRIPTION:Would you like to tune into nature? Let go of stress? Unwind and relax? \nJoin us for a journey among the beautiful trees of Salcey\, once part of a medieval royal hunting forest\, and still home to ancient oaks.
