Village Hall, Shenley Road, Borehamwood
Saturday 23 June 2001, 10:00 to 16:00

On a sweltering Saturday in June, we converted Borehamwood's Village Hall into a forty-seat cinema to stage a free showing of videos of the town's Civic Festival. We made these videos for the town council, and our show covered years from 1964 to 2000. We also put on a display of cine and video equipment. The event coincided with the parade that is the Festival's traditional opening.

Despite the hot weather, we had a very good attendance, and the hall was often full. The show gave us a lot of good publicity, and we acquired two new members as a result.

Everybody in the club worked very hard to make the show such a success. The town council paid for the hire of the hall, and the hire of a large back-projection screen.
