Sittingbourne came from behind to overcome Fleet Town 2-1 in front of a crowd of 348 who had taken advantage of free entry to Bourne Park.
The visitors threatened to spoil the party with a third-minute opener in Saturday's game but Matt Bourne (pictured) nodded a Nick Reeves cross home on 16 minutes to equalise.
Sittingbourne bossed much of the game from then on but had to wait until the 51st minute to take the lead, Elie Kayembe dribbling into the box before Hicham Akhazzan took the ball, cut inside and unleashed a fine drive for his ninth league goal of the campaign.
The win took Gary Abbott's side within six points of the Ryman League Division 1 South play-off places, with two games in hand.
