Charter Festival Celebrations, Saturday 9th September

 

Thank you to everyone who came along to celebrate this year’s Charter Festival Fun Day – such a fantastic turn out to commemorate the awarding of the charter to Ulverston by King Edward I in 1280.

Ulverston’s Town Crier, Peter Winston, began the event with the ringing of the town bell and reading of the charter at 10.30am, before the full day of events, entertainment and activities began.

At Market Cross, performances from Ulverston’s Town Band, Ragazza and Boom Dang entertained the crowds throughout the day while in the afternoon, awards were presented to allotment holders for the best and most improved plots, with Mr Brown, who is in his 90’s, awarded as the Overall Winner.

 

At 2pm, we were blown  away by the number of entries to the Family Dog Show – the Mayor of Ulverston, Michelle Scrogham, having the incredibly difficult job of judging and choosing the winners, before then heading to The Coro to judge entries for the Make-A-Mini-Market-Stall run by The Coro Craft Morning team.

Throughout the day, free face painting, balloons, magic shows, fire engines and the

inshore rescue team engaged children and adults alike, not to mention the numerous stalls manned by local organisations and charities who provided activities, laughter and fun throughout.

A huge thank you to those organisations, stall holders and volunteers who helped and supported on the day, events like these couldn’t run without the time and skills given by our community.
