This is the Planet Reigate podcast. And this is also Peter Stewart. Hello with the show exclusively, uniquely and proudly about RH1, 2 and 3. So this week, this is how we're reflecting and celebrating our love of life around here in episode... Oh gosh, it's... That's the big 4-0. My guests will stand by for our comprehensive round-up of what's on where across the weekend at the Reigate Summer Festival. That's the three main stages, inside and outdoors as well. More than a dozen other fringe events happening at shops and pubs and the cinema throughout the town. Plus we look ahead to the Priory Athletic Club's 10k event next month. We talk you through the route where the tough bits are and how you can get involved as well. In the news this week, we look back at last week's huge fire in Shulwood.
Plans to change West Street in Reigate. I'll give you a lowdown and I'll bring you the list of some of the roads across the area which will be cured of potholes over the course of the next year, we're told. Reasons to celebrate if your name is Flory. Yeah, some local schools have joined forces. I'll tell you which ones and why. Has your child ever wanted to be in a book? I'll tell you how they could get just that a little later on in the show. Plus your chance to abseil down a tower in London for one of our big local charities. Work from the Queen Mother's favourite artists is being exhibited locally. Congratulations to local bands who are going to be performing and supporting big-name acts on stage at Pub in the Park this year.
And if you thought it had been chilly over the past week, you were right. We've got the stats to prove it later on in the show. In sport, Merstham Walking Cricket Club, South Park Rygate FC and Merstham Football Club are going to be mentioned this week as well. Plus, of course, we've got the good time guide of events across the area across the week ahead. Planet Reigate stars are for someone who saved a woman from a spider when she found it in her car while driving up the high street. And our 60-second soundscape before we go at the end of the show this week from Red Hill Common. This is the Planet Reigate podcast with Peter Stewart. So all that and more to come between now and the end of the show. Let's kick it all off with The Good Time Guide.
The Good Time Guide. Things to do and places to go on the Planet Reigate podcast. And of course, if you want to mention your charity or non-profit event, let us know about it. Always look particularly kindly on those kind of events. But even if yours is a business and you're putting on a show, a talk, a walk, an exhibition, whatever it happens to be, get in touch. You can fill out the form you'll find on the Planet Reigate podcast. Well, of course, it is the Reigate Summer Festival for Friday, Saturday and Sunday and we are really pleased and proud to be official media partners. And we've got more information about what is happening across the weekend a little bit later on in the show. Now, if you're in town for that, then why not go and see Surrey Artists Open Studio? It launched last weekend.
It runs until the 23rd of June. Tracey says lots of artists around the area. We're right in the middle of town. Any publicity will be appreciated because we're not allowed to put up signs locally. However, she says we are open daily except Mondays 11 till 5 and you can find us through the Bell Pub Garden and up the stairs. Yes, I've heard about this. I've never gone there. That's going to be a date for the weekend. It's been a while since I had a date for the weekend, as we said. There are two resident artists, Tracy Jane's Art and Carolyn Daunt Design. We've spoken to Carolyn before on the show, plus a guest glass artist as well. Lots to see and inspire in different mediums and styles of art, jewellery, cards and more. So that's going to be great.
So if you're in town for the Reigate Summer Festival event, then you can go along and see the Surrey Artists Open Studio as well. It's through the Bell Pub Garden and up the stairs. You probably feel a little bit awkward while you're doing that. Am I supposed to be here? Am I going the right way? But you are, honestly. Also, the Archway Theatre in Hawley.
