WOW! I don't think we have ever had a busier bonfire night down at Darcy Lever Cricket Club! Our 2011 celebration was huge and we were packed to the rafters. Around 2,000 people joined us for the Guy Fawkes festivities which included a huge blazing bonfire and a magnificent 20-minute firework display.
Packed to the rafters: The unbelievably huge crowd gathering for the firework display. |
The mesmorising display contained a whole array of fireworks from the silent, sparkly shooters, to the big, bright bangers; finishing with a enormous golden shower whose sparks seemed to hang and float over the clapping, cheering crowd.
The fantasic firework show was sponsored by Mr John Charlton, a big, long-time supporter of the club.
Members, families and friends from the club rallied round to sell refreshments, build and maintain the bonfire, light the fireworks and even help out with the big clean up.
Still burning: The morning-after-remains of the bonfire. |
Many, many thanks to those who helped out, contributed and to those who came to celebrate with us.
What a success!!
