What are you doing for St George's Day?
Feb. 28th, 2009 03:33 pmI was amused to hear that my boss, leader of the local council, had had a mention on a local radio station for his stance on making St George's Day a national holiday. In our area, there is now a St George's Day festival which has the support of my boss as it will be raising awareness fo the area and bringing more tourists to the Fylde Coast. Ironic, though, as he isn't giving us the day off!
I am absolutely delighted to support the St. George celebrations for Lytham St Anne’s and Fylde.
Fylde Borough Council is very keen to see the area become a cultural focus in England for celebrating the Patron Saint, and we are happy to throw our weight behind this festival.
Not only is it raising some much needed funds for some essential charities, but the festival will also raise the profile of Lytham St Annes in a spectacular fashion.
It is important to remember that this festival is not just for the people of Lytham St. Annes, but for anybody who feels passionate about St. George’s Day. I would appeal to people of all ages and backgrounds to get involved in any way they can and make it a huge success.
