Boxing Day Run
There’s a definite wintery nip in the air so it must be time to start thinking about our fantastic festive fancy dress Boxing Day three-legged Run around the fabulous drinking establishments of Shaldon and Ringmore!
The map below shows the route everyone will run, attached to at least one other, between all our favourite places : the Ness Hotel, Ferry Boat Inn, the Clipper Cafe, the Shipwrights, the Conservative Club and the London Inn, finishing on The Green.
Lots more details to be posted soon!

More volunteers needed on Boxing Day
Our Committee members will be very busy on the day running the admin side of the Run, so we would be hugely grateful for a few more volunteers just to help us with marshalling road crossings in the village to keep our lovely runners safe. If you can help us for an hour or two around midday please send us a message on FB or email us at: shaldonwatercarnival.gmail.com
Thank you!

Here’s a reminder of the road closures and parking restrictions that will be in force tomorrow, Saturday 3rd August, in the centre of Shaldon to keep everyone as safe as possible on Water Carnival Day. Full details can be found on the map below.

As there will be lots of families walking around the beach area all day, and stalls and entertainment on Marine Parade itself, the road will be closed from the Clipper, as will Horse Lane from its junction with Broadlands, from 8am to 6pm. There will also be a short closure of a section of Fore Street and The Strand to allow the children’s fancy dress procession to walk from The Green to the beach at around 1.30pm.

The roads around The Green will be closed from 3pm to midnight with parking suspensions in force from 6am to midnight, so that we can all enjoy our Carnival evening entertainment: family disco, live band and food stalls.

The volunteers who organise our wonderful Water Carnival thank all residents and visitors for their patience and understanding with these one-day restrictions. We have a duty to do all we can to keep everyone safe on Carnival Day, whilst trying our very best to ensure that everyone has a fun and enjoyable day in our lovely Shaldon.
