Everyone was made very welcome by the various hosts along the route where refreshments were provided. A very pleasant event indeed!

Olympic Torch – Details for Ashbourne
Posted in 2012, Events, Posts of Note on Friday June 22, 2012| Leave a Comment »
Ashbourne (entertainment from 4pm)
Local schools will join in the festivities in Ashbourne, starting from 4pm.
Entertainment includes a Caribbean band and arts exhibition at the Town Hall, dancing in the Market Place, the Highland Gathering Pipe Band and what is expected to be the largest collection of Royal Shrovetide balls, goalers and turners up in the 1000-year plus history of the ancient game, followed by a Shrovetide Procession led by Ashbourne Town Band and the Chairman of the District of the Derbyshire Dales Cllr Tony Millward.
Look out too for District Council sports activities outside Waitrose, community dancing in Compton and Ashbourne Singers in Victoria Square. Please note: to accommodate the entertainment, Dig Street will be closed from 4pm.
At 6pm, the Torch will arrive in Ashbourne at the top of Buxton Hill, then travel through the Market Place, turn right onto St John Street (against the usual one-way flow) and left into Dig Street, working through to Compton. The Relay will revert to convoy mode at the bottom of Derby Road.
Space for children to watch the Torch Relay has been allocated in the town centre – please respect the designated schools’ viewing area.
After leaving the Derbyshire Dales the Torch Relay makes its way to Derby for an evening celebration – details online at derby.gov.uk.

Parwich Village Photograph
Posted in 2012, Events, Memorial hall, Photography, Posts of Note on Friday June 8, 2012| 1 Comment »
We had an excellent turnout for the Parwich Village Photograph taken at the Memorial Hall last Tuesday. The picture was taken slightly early to take advantage of a lucky lull in the rain.
Many thanks to all for putting up with the ‘arrangement’ of the group and also to John F-S for taking the picture.
You can click here to download a high resolution copy of this photograph. Click on the little picture that appears, then select ‘File’ and ‘Download’. The picture may take a short while to transfer to your computer.
You can also order a colour A4 print of the picture using this form. Photographs cost £1.50 each. The form must be received, together with a cheque, by Saturday 16th June 2012 so the prints can be ordered.
Hope you can spot yourselves clearly!

Here are a few more pictures from up on top of Parwich Hill when the beacon was lit in celebration of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. Many thanks to the organisers. The beacon was impressive and the fireworks were spectacular. It was a highly enjoyable event.

Well done to all the children who made boats; there was a super variety, made from paper, wood and junk material. Thank you especially to Revd Andy Larkin for bravely standing in the sheep wash launching, managing and retrieving the flotilla and also to Thayer L for helping to launch some of the vessels.

More on the Beacon
Posted in 2012, Events, Posts of Note on Tuesday June 5, 2012| Leave a Comment »
The Beacon on the hill was a thrill; the beauty of the view over the hills and the sight of the other beacons and firework displays across the darkening landscape, and the raging bonfire reflecting on the faces of villagers was something to remember. Here are a couple of photos I took.

Beacon & Fireworks
Posted in 2012, Events, Posts of Note on Monday June 4, 2012| 8 Comments »
Parwich was part of the network of beacons, one of more than 4000 being lit across the UK and Commonweath. The beacon, on Parwich Hill, could easily be seen in the village and this was followed by fireworks and rockets. Thank you to everyone who helped to build the beacon and to Richard T & Denis L for organising the wonderful fireworks.
All pictures can be enlarged. Thank you to Chris H for the photos above and to JF-S for the following ones taken from the cricket pitch.
