Brockley Max Closing Night at Hilly Fields to return - UPDATED
Brockley MAX festival organiser Moira writes:
Brockley Max's Closing Night in 2010 went down a storm. The sun shone, the bands played, the beer flowed and Brockley rocked out all night long. Lots of people have asked whether this year's Brockley Max Festival will include a closing night event. The answer is: maybe.
We'd love Brockley Max to go out with a bang, but we need more volunteers and a bit of help paying for the marquee. If we can get commitments of help by Sunday afternoon, we'll be able to give a resounding 'yes!' to this year's Brockley Max Closing Night and ensure everyone gets to enjoy one hell of a party up on Hilly Fields.
We've got some excellent music and entertainment in the form of Felix's School of Rock and Mariana Pinho's Maracatudo Mafua band and others. In fact, we've a whole host of music and performers to keep everything humming from midday to well after sundown.
As you know, Brockley Max is a community affair & we couldn't put it on without local people's input. To ensure the closing night can go ahead, we need 30 volunteers and/or £600. For every 10 volunteers or £200 pledge we can go an hour later from 6pm.
We're not asking you for £200, of course, but anything you can contribute to help Brockley Max go ahead in the best possible form would be gratefully received.

Brockley Max Closing Night is on Saturday 9th June (the second weekend of the Whitsun half term).
If you can volunteer to steward or help litter-pick on the day and ensure Brockley gets to party, please sign up to volunteer by emailing info@brockleymax.co.uk stating what hours you do (2hr, 4hr or 6hr slots from 5.30).
Remember, we need to reach our sponsorship or volunteer target by Sunday. Many thanks and here's to an eventful Brockley Max 2012!
UPDATE:

We reached the £200 target and a number of volunteers (thank you!)so the Closing Night will go on to 7pm. The full programme will be revealed on our website on 29th April.
