The carnival committee are still seeking carnival queen entries but there is only a day left to enter! Any would be queens who think they are up to the task should hand their entries in to Krafty Cards in Red Lion Yard or JC Books in the Arcade by noon on Friday, May 16. All entries should include names, ages, addresses and contact numbers with applicants being aged 12 by the time the carnival comes around.
