Carnival Picture 2019
The Carnival was again a great success, despite the weather.
The Batala drum band woke the town up at around 11.30. The classic cars and motor bikes came through the town, followed by the Procession of Scouts, Youth Club, Junior and Infant schools, Town Team, Dynamos and Fire Engine.
Sadly, the Fullers Dray, which is provided each year by Fullers, broke down in the High Street and delayed the Procession a little.
We owe so much to the local traders who have put themselves out for us, repeatedly providing support and donations to the Carnival cause: thank you.
Prizes were awarded to the Scouts for their Procession entry of Apollo 11, and runners up, the Youth club, for their portrayal of the Sixties. ( see pictures below)
Best shops displays were awarded to Tashinga and Luvvit. ( see Pictures)
The Best in Show dog is a 3 year old Burmese Mountain Dog ( see left) rescued by her owner Gill Watkins via the Burmese Welfare Dogs Home Gill has had her for around 20 months and has worked hard in getting Coco socialised and now she has come on so well that she has become a “Pets as Therapy” dog visiting hospitals and Old People’s homes.
