Message from Gail Bates, Harborough Market Manager
"I just wanted to say what a privilege it was to be a part of the Harborough Market traders Carnival float on Saturday.
Chloe from Craft I Trims co-ordinated the float and the traders to dress their stalls and themselves in Hawaiian theme.
Thank you to everyone who travelled on the float and a big shout out to Chloe's family in particular who 'helped out' with Lilo and Stitch and getting the float ready and dismantling afterwards.
The weather took out some of the decorations, there were challenges with costumes and our sound died half way round, but it didnt matter.
Our driver, Archie's Dad, paused at the market and gave everyone a 'honk' with the biggest cheer from everyone out supporting.
It was a great day and demonstrated what a fantastic market community and family we are.
We put the market into Market Harborough!"
Special mentions to Laura, Abi, Ava, Scarlett, Caleb, Kirstie, Bruce, Fiona, Ollie and Callum (sorry if we missed anyone - tag yourselves in)
