By Lona McDonald, Secretary

Preparation is picking up a pace for this year’s St Lawrence Fair - make sure you have the dates in your diary (4th & 5th July) - this year’s theme is ‘Happy Holidays.’ We’re hoping to run some of our usual events, but this is where we need you and your groups, organisations and businesses to get involved: PROCESSION: We’d love it if more groups could join the procession this year, children and adults alike; it’s such a great traditional part of the fair and we’d like to have more of you involved. It is mostly a walking procession so come along, join in the fun and be a part of the official opening of the fair. If you’d like to find out more email us at slf.procession@gmail.com.

KIDS DISCO: We’re still looking for a few volunteers to spend a couple of hours on the Friday evening helping out with the kids disco - without this it may not go ahead. Please get in touch at stlawrencefair@gmail.com.

TUG OF WAR: Always popular, let’s make it a real competition this year with a few more teams joining in. Get your team together and register your interest by dropping us an email at stlawrencefair@gmail.com. It would be great to have a couple of heats before the grand final, with the winning team taking on all the kids in the audience.

STALLS HOLDERS: there are still some slots available - to book please get in touch at stlawrencefair.stalls@ gmail.com; we’d love to see you at the Fair. Thank you!
