Welcome This year’s Chatteris Midsummer Festival aims to appeal to as many people as possible by combining the most popular attractions of the recent Historic and Jubilee Festivals. Welcome to this programme which will give you a guide to the many and varied activities on offer.

The Midsummer Festival will run from June 26th to 30th at Furrowfields Recreation Ground and will include the walking parade, Party in the Park, Tug of War and It’s a Knockout competitions and the dog show. Entry to the Festival site is just £1 per person each day. Also returning will be the clairvoyance evening, the Living History Day for schoolchildren, the cream teas and, of course, the popular arena events including performances by local youth groups, historic re-enactments, children’s entertainers and musical items. New for this year will be a baking and cake decorating competition, Disco Inferno with music from the 60’s and 70’s and a performance by a professional theatrical company of ‘Ours Was the Fen Country’. Attractions for children will include junior versions of the Tug of War and It’s a Knockout competitions on the Sunday, a climbing wall and warzone laser games on the Saturday, performances by Devilstick Peat and the Dragons of Wye-ten and the ever popular fun fair over the weekend. The organisers are hoping as many residents as possible will be involved by taking part or cheering on the parade, taking part in the competitions, supporting talented local singers at the Party in the Park or simply watching the fun. The Festival is a great example of partnership working between the two main funders Chatteris Town Council and Fenland District Council and hard working volunteers from the community. Please come along and support this community event.

Festival Parade Saturday 29th June at 11am The popular Festival Parade returns this year, due to public demand. The organisers are hoping many local groups and individuals will take part in this year’s walking parade which will leave the Church Lane car park at 11am on the Saturday and make its way through the centre of the town to the event site at Furrowfields. The themes this year are Over the Rainbow or Songs of the Sixties. Participants are asked to register in advance by ringing 695166 or e-mailing chatteriscouncil@btconnect.com Those taking part should assemble at 10.30am. Please come along and cheer on the parade.

Shop Window Dressing Event Chatteris Rotary Club has once again kindly organised a shop window dressing event to coincide with the Midsummer Festival. All Chatteris retailers have been invited to arrange a window display on the Festival themes of Over the Rainbow and Songs of the Sixties. The Rotary Club will provide charity donations for the three best dressed windows so please find time to view the displays.

Devilstick Peat ...the complete fool! When Peat first told his family and friends about his ambition to become a fool they were, understandably, concerned! However, undeterred by their reservations Peat persevered and has spent the last 17 years learning a multitude of talents which, mixed with his own zany brand of humour, has resulted in Devilstick Peat reaching near iconic status within the circus, entertainment, and re-enactment communities. Peat has worked in over 20 countries on 3 continents and has had the pleasure of performing at The British and European Juggling Conventions, Glastonbury Festival of Performing Arts, some of Europe’s largest medieval festivals, various castles and even conflict zones. the Arenas

The Victorian Strollers We are a well established Network of friends of all ages from all over Southern England (and up to Hull in fact), with a similar interest, who specialise in portraying Victorian gentlefolk with a great range of award winning characters in authentic period costumes; Gentlemen, Ladies, Officers, Children and on occasion a few of the ‘lower classes’ as well. A fine group for adding that extra Victorian flavour to any event. Feel free to ask us questions, admire our outfits and have your photograph taken with us as we stroll around. www.victorianstrollers.co.uk

Ours Was The Fen Country An evocative and ethereal piece of dance-theatre conjured from captured conversations with people of the fens in East Anglia, created by Dan Canham and the Company of the New Wolsey Theatre. Using interviews with eel-catchers, farmers, parish councillors, museum keepers, molly dancers and conservationists, Dan and his team fuse movement and sound with the words and memories of their native collaborators to get to the heart of this beautiful, bleak and mysterious expanse of flat land. Ours Was The Fen Country is a striking and poetic look at things disappearing and the inevitability of change from the voices of those who still know the old words. Dan is a choreographer, performer and creative lead of Still House. Members of the ‘Ours was the Fen Country’ ensemble have worked with DV8, Kneehigh, Punchdrunk and Fabulous Beast amongst others. This professional show is also being performed in London, Birmingham, Norwich and Peterborough. Performance at 7.45pm in the Marquee at Furrowfields. Tickets £10, concessions £8. www.wolseytheatre.co.uk/4770/shows/ours-was-the-fen-country-rural-tour

Thursday 27th June In the Marquee

4th Battalion Royal Foot Artillery A re-enactment group recreating the British Artillery of the Napoleonic era (roughly 1801 - 1815) both with battles and a living camp scenario. In their own words ‘Living history is what we do. Rather than reading from a boring book or bland webpage, we bring history to life. ......... We show you what a real soldier’s tent would have looked like. We show you what the wounds would have looked like. We show you what they’d have cooked. We show you what they’d have done on the battlefields.’ www.royalartillery1815.co.uk
