We have been working to try and bring an MCT twist to the Christmas lights switch-on but unfortunately our plans have been rejected. As such the switch-on will revert to its traditional Friday evening slot on 2nd December. We apologise to any Mountsorrel people that were hoping to see what we could do to enhance this festive event but this will not now be possible in 2016.
Members of the MCT will however be present at this year’s event canvasing opinion with regard to what people would like to see next year. Please look out for one of us (we’ll be wearing Orange reflective jackets) if you would like to tell us what you’d like to see in 2017.
The Soaring Dragons welcome everyone from the complete beginner to the seasoned paddler to try their hand at the unusual 2,500 year old sport of dragon boat racing. Come along to REVIVAL and have a go for yourselves. Available at the top end of the lock by the Waterside Inn.
