May Fair & Duck Races 2009 PDF Print E-mail

end of duck racesmay09The day proved to be one of the best Fairs for a number of years.  Numbers attending must have broken all records. Well done to everyone involved in the advertising and organisation.

The hall was extremely busy with teas being sold in abundance and cakes of all shapes and sizes to chose from.

The Duck races ran according to plan with plenty of big winners.

The cake stall, book stall and bric a brac stalls were busier than ever before and the new card stall put on a really good show.

The bouncy castle was as usual a big crowd puller amongst the younger visitors to the Fair.

maiden300For the first time this year West Somerset Morris visited the village. One of their newest recruits is a Luxborough resident who is clarely seen in the photos on the next page, dancing his feet off.  With encouragement from The Morris 'Squire' (or was it the 'Bagman' or one of their assistants), a local maiden joined one of the dances! She is seen here held aloft at the end of the dance - much to her embarrasment.

The children and adults all enjoyed the display of dancing from this well established side of Morris men. (www.westsomersetmorrismen.co.uk )
