HCYA Fun Day

With it being the Fourth of July, Hallam Community and Youth Association's annual Fun Day had an American theme. There's so much happening at this event, that when I was invited to photograph it I was delighted to recruit Malcolm and Anne Sales of Buttercross Photography to help me out. Take a look at Malcolm's blog for his take on the day.

Everyone had a good time. The police horses and riders who led the parade evidently found this one of their more relaxing assignments.






Hathersage Band were on fine form ...





... as were jazzy singer Katie Campbell and her backing group.







The field was busy with many colourful stalls and rides.








The Fun Run was strongly contested from the off ...






and kids enjoyed taking part in an impressive demonstration by dog trainers Boney Fido.





In all, the Fun Day lived up to its name!

More images taken by Malcolm, Anne and myself can be seen on my site, where prints and downloads are for sale with a share of profits to HCYA funds.
