July 2017
Welcome to the July edition of Buckden Roundabout. July is traditionally always busy in the village as two of the big-
ger events in our annual calendar take place this month.
Firstly, on the weekend of 30th June to 2nd July we have the Village Festival. Starting on Friday with a fashion show,
it continues with the fete itself on the Saturday featuring some new and exciting attractions followed by music in
Buckden Village Club, and concludes on Sunday with the BDCT service in the village hall followed a picnic lunch and a
walk.
On Saturday July 15th we have Buckfest - voted last year as the best music festival in Cambridgeshire! If you have
not already planned to go and bought tickets you are sadly now too late. Tickets went on sale in April and sold out
within only a few days!
I take pride and pleasure that 2 such large events can happen in such a relatively small community as Buckden!
Please remember to visit the website. There are often articles there that we could not fit into the print edition, as
well as information that arrives during the month:
