Boxted Airfield's 70
years

Langham Community
Centre
2nd June 2013
10am-4pm
2013 is
the 70th anniversary of Boxted Airfield
becoming active. We are holding a special
one-day event to commemorate this ... and of
the impact that the arrival of 3,000
Americans had on a small village.
We will
also remember the 98 airmen who lost their
lives while serving at Boxted.
The full
day programme includes a presentation on
"The History of Boxted Airfield" by Richard
Turner, Boxted Airfield Historian.
John Camp, a
trustee of Boxted Airfield Historical Group,
will give a talk on the service history and
preservation of the Marauder fuselage on
display at the museum site.
The first
group to fly from Boxted used the Marauder
aircraft and Essex was known then as
'Marauder County'. Most of the veterans
families attending have associations with
the Marauders.
"Swing
Machine Big Band" will play the music of the
1930s/40s.
Visiting
veterans and their families, some from
America and Canada, will talk about their
connections with the airfield.
There will be a short break between each
presentation so you can come and go as you
please.
All the presentations will be less than one
hour.

Langham Tennis Club
is hosting a "Rusty Racquets" day from 1pm on Sunday
28th April 2013.
Anyone at all,
members, friends, etc, can join Mark Kleingeld & Ed
Rudge, two of our club coaches, to see what it is
like playing on our beautiful courts, and whether
you would like to start playing or return to the
sport. It is designed to be FUN - I expect the
coaches will devise handicap matches & competitions.
I promise that no-one will criticise anyone, and
there will be many laughs!! Oldest racquet wins a
prize. Spare (more modern) racquets available to
borrow if needed. The afternoon will be entirely
free. Doctor & nurse (that's Jacqueline & me) will
be on hand for muscle strains!!
