ELLFEST 2008!
Watch out Woodstock and get out of the way Glastonbury! Following last year's successful if rather damp 'Ellfest', Gornal's own celebration of music, youth and the green environment returns on 11th July 2008.
As part of the DEFRA 'Every Action Counts programme', Ellowes Hall Sports College is focusing on performing arts and environmental issues including: saving energy, saving resources, shopping ethically, caring for our area and travelling wisely.
The organisers are looking for people to run stalls selling local produce, second hand clothes or anything linked with local charities, and any local craftsmen who work with traditional non powered tools. Wildlife experts and local environmentalists can also get involved.
At the same time, the school will be celebrating its own talents and ideas in the form of an old style village fete, with vocalists, musicians and dance.
Pete Wingate has all the details. Interested parties can contact him on ellfestATellowes.dudley.gov.uk (replace AT with @) or phone 01384 817915.
