From Coupar Angus Regeneration Trust & Coupar Angus Y.W.C.A.

 

Press release for immediate use: 26th January 2006

 

Coupar Angus Horse Fair

 

With the talking over and the planning well under way, the Coupar Angus Regeneration Trust, the YWCA and the Community Council are now seeking all hands aboard to make the community event Horse Fair on the 18th March 2006 a huge success.   With the help of a grant from Communities Scotland this will be a huge step forward towards finding out how you the community of Coupar Angus want the town to go forward into the 21st century.

 

The day will involve a street market; a horse themed procession complete with pipe band, Clydesdale horses, old transport, children from the school and anyone who wants to join in; demonstrations of Bollywood, Line and Street dancing from local groups; competitions for the best Gingerbread Horse and best community group photographs of the day, and with lots more things to see, do and enjoy.  It will also provide the opportunity to launch the forthcoming community survey which will be delivered throughout the town and allow all residents the unique opportunity to have their say with regards to the future of the town.

 

Volunteers are needed to help with all these events, so if you have a few minutes, hours or a full day please get in touch and let us know what you are interested in supporting.  As this is a community event, planned and delivered by members of the community age, nationality, gender or fitness is not important, we can find a job for everyone!  What is important is that the community work together to make a difference to the town.

 

This day can not happen without your help and support, so let’s all pull together and make this into a starting block for future events and the community of Coupar Angus working together.
