About the event

Every year, the Inland Waterways Association runs a major event during the summer. In 2011, it's at Shobnall Fields, Burton on Trent, on the Trent and Mersey Canal. For the first time for a long while, it will be from the Friday to the Sunday of the last weekend in July, rather than the Late Summer Bank Holiday.

Like a lot of other volunteers, we'll be there for three weeks, starting on Saturday 16th July. Our main contribution will be editing and producing the daily newsletter which is circulated to the boaters, campers and exhibitors at the Festival, starting on the Thursday before.

Note: this is an entirely personal account of our time helping to set up and run the Festival. It's not an official IWA site; please use the link above for that.

Come back later

I've set this blog up ready to describe our experiences with the 2010 IWA National Festival and Boat Show at Beale Park, Pangbourne, on the River Thames.

There won't be any posts here until nearer the time; the event happens at August Bank Holiday. If you want to know more about the Festival, or to volunteer to help, please visit the IWA website.
