NEWS & UPDATES

Thursday 5th June 2014

 

IN THE EVENT OF EXTREME WEATHER ON SATURDAY:

Forecast is changing hourly towards Saturday and is now predicted less rain than before, however:

We note the possibility of extreme weather on Saturday and whilst we hope it will not spoil our day a few people have raised a query. So, for clarity:

Carnival Field and Arena

• We will open the field and set up at the normal time on Saturday
• We will carefully monitor the weather conditions.
• Arena events will only proceed if safe to do so.
• Should individual stalls consider the conditions unsuitable to continue, we ask the stallholders to inform us and we will ensure their vehicular movements whilst leaving are safe
• Should the weather conditions become untenable, or if safety is threatened, or if we consider it imprudent to continue, we will consider closing the event early.
• Should this be the case all stallholders will be informed and Committee member will be available to assist in providing safe vehicular clearance of the field

We would ask Stall Holders to take the following precautions:

• Provide as much cover as possible
• Consider additional pegging of gazebos and guy ropes
• Keep vulnerable items in cars during bad weather if they are likely to be damaged by rain
• Bring groundsheets/polythene to cover stall fronts if needed

Float Parade:

• We will meet floats at the normal time.
• We will carefully monitor weather conditions
• If at any time, and taking advice from the police, we consider a risk to the safety of participants or the general public we will delay the departure of the parade by up to 15 minutes.
• If the risks still exist we will cancel the parade. At a safe time we will ask marshals to escort any children to a rendezvous point where they can be collected by their parents.
