MANEA MATTERS
MANEA MATTERS
We also have printing costs and band fees
to pay. All this and a lot more has to be paid
for, so we hope that each year we are able
to raise enough money to pay all these bills.
Every single penny goes back into paying the
expenses and for booking things for the next
year’s Gala.
The first Manea Gala was in 1956, so 2026 will
be the 70th Anniversary - we are looking to
bring in some extra attractions, which will cost
money.
• Have you got any ideas of what you
would like to see?

• Can you help to set up?
• Would you like to be a part of the Will Veal and daughter
organising team? exhibit their Fordson Dexta
tractor
We will reconvene our committee meetings in
September so watch out for adverts on social
media.
