Southport - Armed Forces Day 2009
SOUTHPORT was
the centre of attention for Merseyside's Veteran's Day events from
22 to 28 June 2009. This year’s events were aimed at building an
awareness of our serving members of the Armed Forces, Veterans and
Cadets. It was also to raise cash for related charities. This year’s
events were bigger than in past years’ and it has been hailed an
amazing success. These photographs are of the Sunday's (28 June
2009) events and activities that took place on Victoria Park. The
day was extremely hot and humid, so it was expected that the day
would bring a some rain. Sadly it did, but only for a few minutes, a
thundery rain shower. Interestingly most people stayed out in it,
with only a few running for shelter into the tents and others
standing under the bandstand. Luckily it was a just a short burst of
rain, the crowds did not lose the atmosphere which remained very
lively. This, in our view, was a good show and we hope that the
people of Southport and Merseyside help more next year to make this
one of the best events in the event calendar. We have to single out
Steve for his amazing leadership and vision. Well done and good luck
for next year’s! To keep an eye on what is planned, visit the events
