mablethorpe.infoThe Mablethorpe Carnival Parade was due to take place on Saturday 19th September. The working party hung on to the hope that it could go ahead but sadly the event has proved impossible to insure against the risk of it resulting in Covid infections. Plans to keep the carnival spirit alive, as well as it’s theme of Magic and Fairy Tales, have now been announced!
For the weekend of Saturday & Sunday 19th & 20th September a MAGIC TREASURE HUNT will take place. Contestants, dressed as characters from fairy tales, will be invited to go in search of goblin gold stored at six locations.
Participants will set off on the trail at different times, to be staggered all over the weekend to avoid creating large groups. There will be five different trails: for cyclists, walkers, dog walkers, children, and those on mobility scooters.
Prizes will be awarded not for speed but for the best costumes and for those composing the best short poems on the treasure they find. Shops will be encouraged to decorate their windows following the Magic and Fairy Tales theme, and craft stalls will be located on private property en route.
Entry will be free & entry forms will be available at the Queen’s Park Pavilion, The Coastal Centre, The Conservative Club, Holivans, & The Remington Club.
A leaflet with full details of all that is planned will be delivered to every home in Mablethorpe a week before the event…. but in the meantime the chair of the working party Adrian Benjamin (“Mablethorpe Matters!”) can be contacted for further info on 01507 443327.
