Fun Weekend 2023




Our website is now updated with all the information you need for this year’s Fun Weekend. Printed programmes will soon be distributed to every household in the village and will also be available from both pubs and Doe Park.

Raffle tickets, ducks and squares (numbers board) are now on sale at the Red Lion, Fox & Hounds and Doe Park.

This year’s fancy dress parade, with road closure, has been made possible through kind donations from; Teesdale Area Action Partnership, J & J.G. Gill & Son Ltd and W.S. Hodgson & Co Ltd.

Donations for the raffle, bottle draw, tombola & food stalls are all very welcome. We appreciate any contribution, whether you’re a dab hand at scones & pies or just have a spare bottle of ketchup! (We need low value bottles too.) Just give Kelly a ring (07990 885381) & she’ll direct any donations to the right location. Baked items can be brought straight to the school, before 10am, on Saturday. Thanks.

We look forward to seeing you all over the weekend and shall keep our fingers crossed for fair weather & sunshine! Best wishes from all the Fun Weekend team. X x

1st Post - Fun Weekend 2020 - The New Normal!

Hello one and all,

Welcome to our new little web page for Cotherstone's annual Fun Weekend.

Within these pages you'll find information and regular posts on the noticeboard for everything Fun Weekend related.

We're in strange times and face new challenges, the very essence of a village fete is socialisation and conviviality. The inability to gel these qualities with the confines of government advice has seen the cancellation of events up and down the country; we don't want to be another cancelled event. We will only cancel what we must and carry on with the rest...

Cotherstone 'Mini' Fun Weekend
Keep Calm and Carry On!

The activities we can all safely take part in this year are detailed separately on their own pages. They include; a scarecrow trail, fancy dress stroll, family quiz, treasure trail and cash prizes on two number boards.


From all of the Fun Weekend Committee, stay safe, find kindness for one another and remember to have fun!
