What a great evening, well done to Rannoch Linnell for heading up this year’s organising team. With some 90 runners it was an excellent field, with times faster than last year and a close fought race. There are already some photos of the Junior Races and the Main Even posted here at parwich.org, and more are to follow along with the time sheets. In the meantime here are the winners:
Overall Winners:
Congratulations to Chris, who won for the second year running, with a time of nearly a minute faster than last year, and a personal best on the course(we think).

Parwich commemorated the centenary of the start of World War I, perhaps the darkest four years of the twentieth century, with an exhibition, a talk and a moving service at the War Memorial.
Some 80 Parwich men served in the Arm Forces during WWI, the Exhibition included details and photographs of some of those that the History Society and Parwich Legion have managed to identify from local knowledge and newspapers of the time. More need to identified, so if you know of anyone who served, have any stories or have photographs do get in touch.

All is set fair for our two-hour (10.30-12.30) trip on Cromford Canal on Wednesday 9th July. Let’s hope we have a sunny day!
We have booked 20 ‘Seniors’ seats on the canal boat for a two hour trip (10.30-12.30) at a cost of £4.00 each. It look as though we may have two spare places, if anyone (male or female, all are welcome!) would like to join us please give me a ring on 519…
After the boat ride we plan to have lunch together at Wheatcroft’s Wharf, the café and bookshop beside the canal. They sell soup, salads, quiches, paninis, sandwiches and cakes etc. Unfortunately they don’t take advance bookings, so we can’t make any firm arrangements.
There is a pleasant walk along the canal, and some of us may fancy doing that afterwards, or perhaps exploring the mill or the shops at the mill across the road.The plan is that everyone will be meeting on the green at 9.30ish on Wednesday morning to arrange sharing lifts etc, aiming to leave Parwich at about 9.45, to give us plenty of time.There is a car park close to the canal.

There was a slightly controversial entry in this evening’s first race (unless congratulations are in order for one of the competitors, well here’s hoping).
Local Mother’s Race
(Paula Lynam Trophy)
The evening started with fantastic weather, but as the preparations for the Junior Race began, a heavy shower settled over Parwich. This made conditions very slippery, and the rain only began to abate as the last runners reach the summit of the Hill. It was very impressive to see particularly the younger children battling the steep slope and the heavy rain together.
Junior Hill Race
14 yrs and under
(Click here for Time Sheets)
Haulier’s Trophy (for the outright winner)
BMAC Trophy (for the first girl)
Russell Trophy (for the first local boy)
Foden Shield (first local girl)
The times were excellent, despite the conditions. Click here to see the full time sheets for 2014. Photos to follow.

All other days we are open as normal from 6pm.
In addition to our usual range of snacks (crisps, nuts, mini cheddars etc.) we will have the following available on Wakes Saturday:

With great weather, home-made scones and stunning gardens it was hardly surprising that we had a record attendance at this year’s open gardens. Garden owners and volunteers can be justifiably proud of their hard work and resultant success. The event is organised by Parwich & District Horticultural Society. The bumper proceeds will be used to underwrite the main Flower & Vegetable Show in September, and then the Society will allocate support for local groups and causes.
Here are a few photos I took around the Memorial Hall, but, if any readers have photos of the gardens, please do send them in to the Blog (parwich@hotmail.co.uk):
