Lark in the Park is back and it's bigger and better than ever!
On Saturday 12 July at 10am the gates of the Jubilee Fields in Mildenhall will open for the second community fun day organised by Forest Heath District Council.
Free to enter, Lark in the Park will feature a superb array of entertainment, excitement and refreshment and is a showcase for all that is good about Forest Heath.
There really is something for everyone with crafts and climbing wall, sports and singing, horses and hawks.
One of the most popular attractions of the day is fishing for "alien" crayfish in the River Lark. These signal crayfish are destroying the native variety and our river banks and your help is needed to catch them. Everything you need to catch at crayfish will be available on site.
The power of the rare Suffolk Punch horses will displayed with rides around the area. While the skill and intelligence of dogs in the United States Air Force will be put to the test in the arena.
Sports feature at this year's event with Suffolk Sports showcasing a variety of activities in have-a-go sessions in several arenas. Forest Heath District Council's Leisure teams will be showcasing the equipment to be found in sports centres across the area. For the really adventurous there is a superb climbing wall to scale - if you dare!
There is entertainment and music throughout the day from a wide variety of artistes performing on stage and around the field. Younger visitors can join a carnival workshop, learn clowning skills or watch puppet shows.
A craft fair, featuring local craftspeople, will be offering a range of hand crafted goods from jewellery to bags with cards, quilts and lace in between! You can find the craft stalls in the Jubilee Centre.
If all this activity leaves you thirsty and hungry then the Beck Row Women's Institute is providing home made teas, the Bunbury Players will be offering lunches, there's a hog roast and you will always find an ice cream seller within strolling distance!
There will be additional car parking at Forest Heath District Council offices on the day.
