3pm - Finish
 The
Cricklade Band
Hopefully putting together a fantastic set of Dixieland tunes especially
for the event. This promises to be REALLY special!
 The
Lawmen
The Lawmen promise to be some of the meanest, low-down
cowboys ever seen this side of the county line. Never mind
Arizona, these guys are from the REAL wild west - Bristol!
They will be putting on a superb show for you all day, with loads
of shooting, action and entertainment from some real professionals.
Not to be missed.
 Red
'n' Randy
Linedancers for a new millennium. Loud and lippy, come
on down and join in the "Three Thumbs Boogie" or "The
Red Neck Shuffle". They've got more tassles than you
can shake a stick at!
 The
Cameo Dancers
You will be able to see the superb Cameo Dancers as they
shake it all about performing the deliciously exciting Can-Can.
Another first for the Cricklade High Street (apart from the occasional
display outside the White Lion on a Friday night...!).
 Alex
Laredo
Watch one of the real experts put on a show that will
amaze you! Alex Laredo will be demonstrating lasso tricks,
whip cracking and gun slinging. This guy is SO good he is
the WORLD record holder for rope tricks!
 Tony
M
Cricklade’s very own Tony M will be performing on
the stage for most of the afternoon. If you have never seen
Tony before, then you are in for a real treat. He is a great
singer, a great guitarist and a great entertainer too. Make
sure you come and see him - you won't be disappointed.
Bucking Bronco
We haven't finalised the entertainments yet, but we have booked
a Bucking Bronco machine. This WILL be fun to watch!
Classic Motorcycles
It's Father's Day, so here is something for the Dads (apart from
the Can Can dancing of course!) The fifth Cricklade Classic Rally
is being held in the Car Park of the White Hart hotel. Come and
see some lovely old machines. Find out more here...
 The
St Joan's Ambulance
We are pleased to say that all health matters will be left in the
capable hands of the St Joan's Ambulance. Accident prone and
ready to serve. Joan and John, having failed the most basic of first
aid courses, have set forth with crates of crepe bandage and piles
of plasters. Using all available street furniture this cumbersome
duo trip, fall and blaze a trail of self destruction, turning the
smallest obstacle into a mountain of trouble. Whether stuck under
the wheel of a car or jammed tight amongst railings they still attempt
to save people from the hazards of everyday life. Using slapstick
and they own unique comedy style they will have you in stitches.
How can we join in?
Of course everyone is welcome to come and enjoy the day. There
will be something there for all the family. If you would like
to take part, then why not enter a stall? It could be a chance
to have some fun and join in the spirit of the day and maybe make
some money for your cause too. If you fancy having a stall
then please get in touch (either by
or by calling 01793 752685).
How can we help?
In order to make the day a success, we are going to need loads of
helpers. If you would like to join us and lend us a hand,
then get in touch (either by
or by calling 01793 752685)
Why are we doing this?
The whole aim of this festival is to provide a fun day out for the
Cricklade community. We are totally dependant on the support
of local businesses and other bodies - without their help, this
event would not be possible.
