The itinery for this years Chirk Fun Day has been set and is busier than ever. The fun day, organised by Chirk Celebrations Committee and Lights Committee, will open the gates at the AAA’s recreation ground at 12.30pm on Saturday, June 28, admission £2 per adult, children enter for free.

One of the main attractions will be the Glyn Valley Tramway Trust who are using the day to help them engage with the people of Chirk. The Trust will have three stalls with souvenirs, information, and the chance to join them as members of the Trust as they embark on their exciting new project.

In collaboration with the Wrexham Model Engineering Club, there will also be a 120 ft passenger carrying railway of 5in gauge operating, which throughout the afternoon will run from Chirk to Glyn Ceiriog (in miniature), charging a nominal sum for transportation. Finally, fresh from the workshop, will be the Trust’s GVT ‘style’ Wagon No.5, a most impressive piece of rolling stock some 11ft in length and 6ft high, brought to Chirk by Jewsons of Chirk as a token of their support for the Trust.

Also on the day will be entertainment provided by Pantonic All Steel Orchestra, Border School of Dance and a Tae-Kwon-Do display.

A six-a-side football tournament of eight Under 12s teams will battle it out for the Chirk Celebrations Invitation Trophy and other children’s sports events will be held.
