Get your Easter bonnet on for Carn
parade
17.04.14
THE Carndonagh Easter
Parade is back for its fourth year on Easter Monday,
April 21.
The parade will start at Simpson’s car park at 3pm
and will proceed to the Diamond, down Bridge Street,
onto Church Road and will then return to the Diamond
via Station Road and Malin Street, before returning
to Simpson’s.
There will be a competition for the best Easter
bonnet, the best entries and floats in terms of
fancy dress and endeavour. So why not get in touch
with your artistic side and be creative? |

There will be live
music and entertainment from the viewing platform in
the Diamond from 2.30pm and an exhibition made up of
the entries received from the ongoing photographic
and children's colouring competition. Entries can be
received from local shops and returned to the Carn
post office.
It is hoped that the many clubs and organisations in
the town will join the parade on the day and make it
a celebration of the extent of community involvement
in Carn. All businesses are asked to join in the
spirit of the day, enter floats and promote the
town. Entries however are not confined to the town
so, if you fancy a good day’s fun, come along and
enter.
Parade committee chairman Joe Doherty said: "We
would like to thank the local businesses and
community for their support in helping to make this
another successful event for the town. It is sure to
be a great day for all and we encourage you to come
out and enjoy this fantastic day."
Please note, traffic diversions will be in place on
the day and due to this McGinley's Dublin bus will
pick up at Supervalu and Donagh Cross. Volunteers
and stewards still needed. For further information
or to register a float please contact Jennifer
O'Donnell on 086 3796311. |
