Porthcawl Carnival 2009
Porthcawl Buckaneers would like to thank everyone who participated in this year's event. Without the support and participation of the community the carnival would not continue. The standard of 'floats' was outstanding and it proved difficult to select the winners.
The winners this year were:
Adult Float
1st Porthcawl Town Council
2nd New Brogden Public House
Children's Float
1st Porthcawl Rugby Club
2nd Bright Beginnings
Walkers
The Webb sisters
A new award sponsored bt Lindsay Morgan President of Porthcawl Chamber of Trade was made to the 'gambo' entered by the Blue Seas Guest House.
As a committee we intend to have the 'gambo' as another part of the annual carnival and anyone interested to contact the Porthcawl Buckaneers.
The committee would like to thank the road hauliers for the supply of the lorries. Everyone who donated in our buckets over the last week. Our thanks goes out to the business community who advertise in our Carnival magazine. We are extremely grateful to the 'volunteers' who assisted us in our collections and the erection of tents etc on the carnival field.
