The Death of Oakham Carnival?

The Death of Oakham Carnival?

It was sad to hear at Oakham Town the carnival procession maybe no more!

I think there has been a rift amongst committee members as some have resigned.

The new committee asked Oakham Town Council for a grant of £2500.

They wanted to host a fun day only in Cutts Close.

Cllr Alf Dewis said the man from the committee gave a terrible presentation.

So Oakham Town Council refused the grant and said the should use up the reserves and have a last fun day.

I wonder how much the Everitt mob were invloved in the demise of the Carnival a sad loss for Oakham.
