Thread Name: Shrewsbury Festival - How disappointing
Subject: RE: Shrewsbury Festival - How disappointing
Just to add our two penn'uth -we are on the committee of SFF and know the hours and hours of work that Alan and Sandra, and many others, put in to ensure a sucessful festival. One that offers a huge variety of types of music and dance, and that appeals to a wide spectrum of any potential audience. This year our childrens tent was only just about big enough - so Alan immediately said 'OK I'll get you a bigger one next year, and it'll be a clearspan one too' Excellent, and no quibbles about it. I'm sure that the vast majority of people who come to SFF have a great time - which is evidenced by the comments on the feedback forms. We have already started a lot of the planning for next year, and as it's Darwin anniversary year in Shrewsbury [which was his birthplace] our theme for the childrens festival will be Darwin! - lets see what evolves!!
