The Friends of Kirk Hallam Lake and Meadows coordinated another successful Lakeside Festival for local folk last week.
The dust has settled now from last Sundays’ last minute rush to erect gazebo’s, welcome stall holders, assist all to settle in their place and wait for the Kirk Hallam public to arrive!
I think it is fair to say that the event went without any major hitch, many people turned out to join in the ‘nature’ themed fun, admire the beautiful lakeside and surrounding natural environment, listen to the wonderful street organ music & chill, or to see what other things the area has to offer, such as the new sports hall facility and to find out about the new OZ Box sessions starting at the community sports rooms soon.
I hope you enjoyed the day’s events, the team behind the scenes did an admirable job from finding the funding, getting out the invites, to meeting and greeting all stall holders and helping to set up and clear up at the beginning and the end of the day.
I am sure you will join me to thank everyone for their support, special thanks this year, to Oliver Dickinson, Friends Volunteer who helped out financially, sponsoring the Festival with his donation to the funds from his new business venture.

I would like to wish him all the very best with this.
