The Urban Tribesmen
Local Charity groups and businesses will be running stalls offering goods for sale, tombolas, raffles and games.
Food and Drink will be readily available to cure any rumbling bellies with Burger Bars, Indian Food, a Hog Roast, Jacket Potatoes, hot and cold drinks (from the Tea Tent) and Cream Teas to choose from.
Hopefully the sun will shine and the kids will be out with their water guns again. Iʼm personally looking forward to the bongo fuelled rythms of the Urban Tribesmen - I think the Beatcheck float is gonna rock the foundations of Newport Pagnell. It will be a day for people of all walks of life so donʼt miss it - come enjoy!
