Replica Tram No.7
Saturday/Sunday 18th/19st May - "Colwyn
Bay  Weekend"
further events are being "formulated" at this moment in time
(local fetes, annual hauled run Llandudno to Colwyn Bay and Christmas parades)
With the on-gowing bad weather and the general state of the economy resulting in less visitors
many of the local Carnivals did not taken place in 2012
It is hoped at least some the usual selection will take place again in 2013
and out tram will be invited to attend
* * * Remember it is also possible to bring our Replica Tram No.7 to "your" event
in exchange for a minumum donation of £350 per day to the Society
to cover preparation, transportation, insurance, manning costs, etc.
A very different way to promote your event or business !!!
Please initially contact the Events Manager * * *
