Formby Live 2011!!!

FROM Friday 8 July until Sunday, 10 July 2011, the 3rd Formby Live took place in Formby Village. Woodward’s, The Gallery, Cafe D' Art and the Formby Pool sponsored and played host to the music project.... The event had many local acts performing at the venues including the likes of the Night Parade, The Anchormen, Marc Kenny, Me and My Cousin and Stuart James Swing to name just a few. We joined the festivities on Sunday at the Formby Pool as the Mersey Cats provided a stage outside the complex for a live concert, and including a wide range of local musicians, singers and bands who delivered high quality performances. Amongst those performing was Range High School, but sadly Formby High School was unable to attend. The day not only had good music, but also not one but two dance displays, with a Zumba Dance demonstration and Belly Dancing; plus a BBQ buffet, instrument stalls, and a bouncy castle for the younger members of the audience!

 

Well done to all who took part and a very special well done to Pat and her committee who co-ordinated all the groups. Let’s hope 2012 will see this event returning even bigger and stronger still. Click on here 9 to see more photographs of the event.

 ORANGE LODGE - ANNUAL 12TH JULY CELEBRATIONS / PARADE

SOUTHPORT was the location again for the annual Battle of the Boyne Parade. This year was the 321st Anniversary and the members of the Loyal Orange Institution from Liverpool and surrounding area's held their annual 'twelfth' celebrations, that commencing with a thanksgiving service on Sunday, 10 July at St Georges Hall, in Liverpool, followed by the visit to Southport on Tuesday, 12 July 2011. "The Orange Institution is a family based organisation, and we hope that the celebrations are enjoyed by both those taking part and the spectators. It is always are hope that the public will enjoy the spectacle of the many marching bands, and in particular the children's lodges who will be on the parade, some in period costume. The Civil and Religious freedoms established, for ALL during King William III's reign have served this country well for over 300 years, and the parade reminds us of this." said Steve Kingston Deputy Provincial Master.
