SUMMARY:WELLINGBOROUGH: Glamis Hall for All's Family Festival
DESCRIPTION:Free to attend Family Festival on Saturday 25th July at Glamis Hall for All\, NN8 3RU.\nThe event runs from 10am – 3pm.\nThe idea of this event is to give families something as free as possible to do on the first Saturday of the summer school holidays as we recognise that many families struggle to find affordable things to do for the 6 weeks of the holiday.\nWe have a mixture of activities and games for all age groups\, and stalls by local small businesses selling homemade items.\nMost of the activities we provide are free such as crazy golf\, a mini farm and small animal experience provided by Ark Farm and a reptile encounter by Andrea’s Animals. We also have soft axe throwing and archery by a local Scout group and racket games by North Northamptonshire County Council’s Leisure and Active Families team.\nWe have a BBQ and cafe open all day at affordable prices.\nDonkey rides and face painting are available for a fee. Face Painting must be booked in advance via the QR code on the poster but donkeys are pay on the day.\nWe hope to see you at our event.
