FOLLOWING an emergency meeting of Culcheth & Glazebury Parish Council it has been agreed to postpone Culcheth Community Day (scheduled for Bank Holiday Monday May 2) until Saturday, July 9.
Recent heavy rain has left the village green in a very poor state with standing water in some areas.
It was agreed by councillors that vehicles could not get on or off the green – with a real danger of them getting stuck!
The event will now take place on Saturday July 9 – with confirmation that all the main attractions scheduled for Monday will be on show on the new date.
The theme “Outer Space: fact and fiction” will permeate through much of the entertainment.
Featured performances will entertain young and old alike, and there will be the chance for Star Wars fans to come face to face with Darth Vader, the Jedi and even ride the X-Wing Starfighter.
There will also be the usual favourites – Trumble the Clown will entertain young children, fairground rides will be located in the village centre, there will be a pet show and the veteran car/motorcycle and tractor display.
Schools will have the opportunity to take part in both art and creative writing competitions, with exclusive space-themed prizes to be won.
