The activities start with a mammoth afternoon tea held in the boathouse tomorrow.

There will also be a static display by the White Rose Goldwings Motorcycle group, while the Ramshackle Shanty Men will be performing their songs at around 11am. Mascot Stormy Stan will also be available for photographs.
The main event on Sunday will be the launching of both lifeboats just after 1pm and organisers hope for a display by the Coastguard rescue helicopter (subject to call-outs).
Dearne Big Band will be on hand to entertain everyone.
David Wilson, chairman of Filey RNLI said: “The RNLI relies solely on donations from the public and every penny that we raise at the Lifeboat weekend will go towards the running of Filey Lifeboat Station.”
