Featherstone
“Play Day”
2009
Invite
On Wednesday 5th August 2009, 10AM to 3PM it will be the 2nd annual “Featherstone Play Day”. The event is provided as a “FREE” community day out.
Play day is a national annual event that provides free entertainment for all ages just for a day.
This Playday we're asking everyone to make time for play. From parents, carers and teachers, to policy makers and planners - everyone should make time to support children’s right to play in whatever way they can.
In our busy and overscheduled lives it’s easy to prioritise other things over play, and to think, play is something children just do. As adults, we all need to make time and space to enable children to play freely, and this is what we aim to highlight with the Playday 2009: Make time! campaign.
The event again is being held in Purston Park. There will be all sorts of activates, games and fun. This will be funded from grants applied for and money raised during the year.
The event is a multi-agency project that invites every local community group to participate anyway they can.
We would like to invite you to attend and take part. Participation can be in many forms. You can simply enjoy the free events provided with your group or create something/ actvity. The park is a huge area and there will be plenty of room for games and involvement.
We hope you can make it and would be grateful of confirmation if you wish to take part. The event is being organised via regular meetings. The next meeting is Tuesday 30th June, 7.15pm at the B+S Club, Wilson Street, Featherstone.
