Forbes' Uniting Church is throwing open the gates for a community fete on Saturday, 6 September.
The church community is excited to welcome the town to share a family event in the grounds right in time to enjoy the fete atmosphere with dads and grandads, or to secure a Father's day gift.
Everyone is most welcome. The fete will be open 9am to 3pm, with the barbecue cooking all day.
There will be a wide range of activities and stalls for the public to enjoy including a mighty book stall with bargains especially in the children’s books section.
There will be produce for sale, plants, baking, barista coffee, handmade crafts and guessing competitions.

A number of community groups are involved in the day including the Eugowra Men’s shed folk as they have a stall to showcase their activities.
A program of live entertainment has also been arranged so that music fills the grounds while people wander the stalls. There will be seating for those that feel like sitting to listen to choirs, the Town Band and watch drama items.
A feature of the fete will be a silent auction.
There have been at least 30 items donated to the auction by businesses, artisans and families. This support for the auction is really appreciated.
There will be such a great variety for visitors to place a silent bid on during the day from 9am to 3pm: everything from fishing rods to floor rugs, fruit trees to bags of chook feed, artwork to gift vouchers.
There is something for everyone - a chance to bid on a gift for dad for Father’s Day perhaps.
Of course, if the weather is a bit damp the event will be able to use the church hall and the church building itself so that fete goers can still enjoy the fun of the fair.
