The Parade Marshall’s (Leigh Crawshaw and Sharon Langley) will organise Groups as per the order sheet to arrive at the Pavilion no later than 1415hrs.

The St George’s Celebrations will end at about 1515hrs or thereabouts.

USE OF THE PARK / WRIST BANDS & PAVILION

Some groups will no doubt take advantage to make this occasion a day event with the availability of the discounted wrist band offer.

Wrist Bands can be purchased at £14.00 in advance or on the day; these can be purchased from the main ticket office.

ADDITIONAL

The Pavilion is booked to us for the day, thus if anyone requires leaving property prior to the start times you are more than welcome to do so on the proviso that any items or baggage are collected prior to the start of the Parade.

In addition, should the weather be inclement, I would ask you to make your way to the Pavilion where entertainment will be provided prior to the start of the Service.
