Another Fantastic<br />

Year for <strong>Milnrow</strong><br />

and <strong>Newhey</strong><br />

Carnival<br />

Thousands of people lined the streets to<br />

watch <strong>Milnrow</strong> & <strong>Newhey</strong> Carnival and<br />

attended the summer fete at <strong>Milnrow</strong><br />

Memorial Park on Saturday 22nd June.<br />

A thoroughly enjoyable day was had by all<br />

and the sense of camaraderie and goodwill<br />

in the village was evident as the local<br />

community came out to support the day.<br />

<strong>Milnrow</strong> Brass Band led the parade which<br />

followed by a host of walking groups and vehicles<br />

ranging from cars, flat bed trailers to 45ft floats.<br />

There were Carnival Queens, super-heroes, fairy<br />

tale characters, street dancers, morris dancers,<br />

cricketers, footballers, local schools, pre-schools<br />

together with voluntary groups, businesses and<br />

charities taking part in the parade donning all<br />

kinds of fancy dress. This year’s ‘At the Movies’<br />

theme was evident throughout the parade as was<br />

a very impressive sight.<br />

Proceeds from the street collection were donated<br />

to Springhill Hospice and Rochdale Heartbeat.<br />

The carnival committee wishes to thank the local<br />

community for the generosity shown in the<br />

contributions to the street collection on the day.<br />

Large crowds attended the <strong>Milnrow</strong> Memorial<br />

Park and enjoyed the live music provided by New<br />

Identity to the delight of the crowd.<br />
