Hertford Community Festival June 2018

East Herts District Council has a commitment to promoting health and fitness in the community , and to this end they support "Active East Herts" - a network of local organisations who deliver sports and physical activities.

We accepted an invitation to participate in the " Hertford Cycling Festival" put on by Active East Herts, on Hartham Common and had one of a dozen or so stands at the fare.It was largely aimed at youngsters and young families, the central attraction being a really impressive BMX show put on by three potential Olympic 2020 freestyle riders -- right next to our pitch.

We had 15 inquiries , but these were mainly from  people of working age seeking social rides in the evenings or weekends. 

The organisers considered the Festival to be a success and hope to repeat it next year , but to include activities other  than cycling.

My thanks to Tim and Allan for their encouragement and support.
