Have you ever wondered how the Festival happens? How all the floats come
together, where the bands come from, who organises it all?
It doesn't just happen. It isn't something laid on by the Parish Council,
Lancashire County Council (although we couldn't do it without their help).
The Festival and all the other activities throughout the year happen because
the Festival Committee and their friends make them happen. It's a tradition over
a century old which we're not about to drop now, but we need your help...
If you enjoy the Festival and want to see it continue, why not get
involved. It's far more rewarding than just watching it. If you're
interested, we'd love your help. There's always room for an extra pair of hands,
and it doesn't involve a massive amount of your time (see the
Diary Page for
the few meetings through the year).
Please give it some serious thought - If you've enjoyed it, why not invest
just a little time to let others do the same well into the future.
If you are interested, please email us
with your contact details, or come to a Committee Meeting and talk to us.
Festival Patrons
Almost all of the Festival's running costs come from fund raising and from
very much appreciated donations. Last year, over £4000 was raised to help meet
costs.
Much of this is thanks to the Festival Patrons, listed below. These are
friends and local businesses who have chosen to provide an annual sponsorship,
from as little as £20 each year.
If you'd like to do the same we'd love to hear from you. Please
email our
Sponsorship Coordinator with your contact details.
Also, Business Patrons - would you like to be better advertised on this
website (maybe with your logo or a separate feature on a links page), email our
Sponsorship Coordinator or Secretary.
