Fun day for all at Parton

A FANCY dress competition, football cage and climbing wall are just some of the attractions expected at Parton fun day.

It takes place on Sunday, July 1, 11am-4pm, in and around the village hall area.

There will be cash prizes for the fancy dress competition split into two age groups – under eights and over eights – and Copeland’s Mayor will be judging.

Other attractions will be a Punch and Judy, a magic show, archery and science experiments with Professor Boffin. There will also be a local produce area for people who sell plants, crafts and home-made goods.
