LEYLAND FESTIVAL PARADE

North West TKD has again been invited to Leyland Festival Parade this year (Saturday 20th June). This is a great event and the Leyland Festival is a great day out for all of the family!

We will be walking as a group throughout the whole parade route. We encourage students to walk with their families. Older students (+11 years are allowed to walk without an adult joining the parade) We will provide a free t-shirt to all participants to wear for the event as we did last year.

We will meet at 11.00am, with the parade setting off from 11.50am and should be finished by 12.45pm.

Please respond to this email sent today to take part!

There will be no classes on Saturday 20th June and we encourage all students to attend the parade.

Please can you confirm by Sunday 31st May if you are able to attend, with t-shirt requirements to give us time to order the t-shirts.

Further details and arrangements will be sent out nearer to the time.
