Carnival Day is Saturday July 21st but Carnival Week begins the previous Saturday, July 14th, with a Ceilidh/Barn Dance in the Tavistock Town Hall. The success of Tavistock town relays in Carnival Week concluded with the presentation of a bumper cheque for Tavistock Lions last week. President Jan Meakin and Alan Wroath from the Lions received £1,500 from various Tavistock Athletic Club members, young and old, representing all abilities for which the club caters. This donation goes directly back into local community projects and good causes at the heart of Tavistock. Club chairman Alistair Kinsey who handed over the cheque said ‘Events like the town relays are what make Tavistock special, a community coming together producing a sporting spectacle with a fun filled running event and sportsmanship in the heart of this vibrant town.’ Event sponsor, Tavistock Hire Centre, was represented by Craig Howells at the presentation. Their support gave the financial clout to allow this year’s event to proceed, giving hundreds of runners of all ages, family and friends the evening they deserve. Planning for next year’s event is under way already with a challenge to make it even bigger and brighter by attracting more sports, school and corporate teams.

We've
just finished an incredibly successful Carnival Week, blessed with
amazing weather and a series of fantastic events across the 8 days. The
week culminated in the Carnival Parade through the town on the evening
of Saturday 19th July - and the street collection during the parade
raised £2291, which was up by 5% on last year, so a massive thank you to
everyone!
Lion Graeme Ugle puts together short films of all our main events and here is his video of the Carnival 2014. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9lV8F9YwFY
Also
during the Carnival week, we were delighted to welcome Emma Barton, who
plays Honey Mitchell in BBC1's Eastenders, to our Fun Day in the
Meadows, where she crowned our 2014 Carnival Princess Emilia Barrett and her attendants Kina Massey and Ella Baker (see below).
