Fun Day Enjoyed By All

Monday 6 June 2011

Hertford Fun Day was once again a great success, and although there was a shower towards the end of the afternoon, rain didn’t stop play!  Approximately 3,500 people attended across the course of the afternoon.

Children hugely enjoyed the Water Walkers and bouncing on the bungees, whilst RJ Ride Guides Mountain Bike Stunt Show entertained young and old.  Many local voluntary groups had stalls on the Castle lawn, raising money for their organisations.

For those who wanted quieter form of entertainment, there was a small collection of classic cars outside Hertford Theatre, model railway displays in the Mill Bridge Rooms, and the Vintage Bus tours and rides were as popular as ever.  There was also a bright collection of narrowboats alongside Folly Island.

Councillor Jane Sartin said: "The day had a really good atmosphere, and it was great to see so many people enjoying the event.  Even the rain didn't spoil everyone's fun."
