Kingsbridge Fair Week: Something to Smile about!

It’s that time of year again when Kingsbridge prepares for Fair Week which runs from Sat 19^th to Sat 26^th July.

This year will start with a bang with the annual fireworks display which is scheduled to start around 10 pm on the 19 ^th; it is always worth staying up for.

As usual there will be something for everyone from live music, competitions and dog shows to displays from local clubs.

Are you feeling fit and want to take part in the fun run or the Kingsbridge 10K race?

Or are you more of a three legged race type of person?

Well if there is Pimms on offer on the Quay, I know where I will be.

Whatever you fancy it’s all about fun!

And it does not get more fun than watching the raft race which this year will take place on Sun 20^th at 1pm.

This is my family’s favourite as my husband always takes part. I am sworn to secrecy as to which costumes they will be wearing this time but I can tell you that it is a black and white animal that is often thought to be wearing a dinner suit…(don’t worry darling, they’ll never guess).

You are bound to see some of our nurses rushing around town trying to find odd objects at shop windows, believe it or not, the competition can get pretty fierce.

All the scheduled events for the week are in the official programmes you get buy from the tourist office or the news agents or go to www.kingsbridgefairweek.co.uk.

Whatever you decide to do during fair week, make sure you do it with a great big smile.
