Stockton Show, August 2013

Stockton Show 2013

Fantastic weather for Stockton Show this year and another brilliant weekend of fun for all the family organized by Stockton Council . The show took place at Preston Park and was attended by thousands of people. As usual there was lots to do with attractions, side shows, stalls of all kinds, a fun fair and brilliant arena entertainment. The Events Team once again excelled and gave the public a superb show.  Here a few snap shots I took in between performing my Punch and Judy or Magic Shows.

The British Legion Stockton-Yarm District 90th anniversay celebrations took place in Ropner Park, Hartburn Lane, Stockton on Tees on Sunday 12th June. The event was very well attended by the general public. The Mayor of Stockton was in attendance as were many other councillors and VIP guests. The event was organised by Stockton Council Events Team.

Proud History

The Stockton on Tees Branch was formed in 1921 and was one of the first to take up the mantel of welfare service and have been helping ex-service men and women and their families ever since.

Event Entertainment

There was entertainment throughout the day including military parades, a Drumhead service, live music in the bandstand, historical vehicles, craft activities, falconry display, Punch and Judy British Legion Bikers, inflatables and kiddies rides.

Fortunately the weather was fair until 3pm when the rain came and many people left for home. The event had however been a great success.
