Alnwick Library
In true Olympic spirit, the fun and
games took place on Thursday 23 August at Alnwick Library in the
library garden. We had 13 keen ‘Olympians’ who came to take part,
all ages and abilities, and fun, mayhem and medals were enjoyed by
all. The games which included: Javelin, Shot Put, Long Jump,
Curling and Target Practice (with balls) were undertaken with much
frivolity.
During the opening and closing
ceremony of the games, the Union Jack flag was raised and gold
medals awarded….applause and cheers were plenty and all went home
happy with their Olympic endeavours. A ‘golden’ morning at Alnwick
Library for all.
