Thread Name: Holmfirth Festival of Folk
Subject: RE: Holmfirth Festival of Folk
Can i just say to those of you out there that have been following this thread that I have had sight of the flyer for the festival and it really is looking swell. We should shortly have 7000 leaflets to shift, so if you are able to bung them out to poeple who haven't heard - pls let Cath or me know how we can get them to you.

Credit should go to all the gang that are sorting this out - they have managed to achieve most of this in less than 8 weeks - starting with a few bookings at the picturedrome we now have a wide ranging list of turns, ceidihs, dance sides, sessions, traders, schools workshops and showcases, campsite, major sponsors, and lots more besides - it really is fantastic.

Cath, especially, has done really well to co-ordinate a lot of this info - the web site gets better all the time and is looking really good now - the word is out there and more offers of help and performers still come in

In the words of young Mr Grace (from are you being served)

You're all doing really well !

It shows the folk community can really pull together and pull things out of the bag when they need too - pls be sure to tell your mates and make the festival a date
