The event at Duncan Stewart Park – Jenny’s Park to the locals – was organised by the town’s gala day committee.
With limited funds meaning it was not possible to host a gala day again this year - the last was in 2024 - the small team of volunteers organised a community fun day for local families instead.
It was a great celebration for everyone ahead of the schools returning after the holidays this week.
The afternoon offered a great day out for all ages with a range of stalls, food vendors and inflatables as well as wrestling, a magician and a Johnny Cash tribute from the committee’s vice secretary Ross Barr.
There were also alpacas, face painting and a few familiar faces including Batman and Mario and Luigi.
In a social media post the committee thanked everyone who attended the fun day as well as the stall holders.
The committee’s aim is to bring a gala back to the town, but in order to do this they are seeking more community support and people to join the committee.
