Chairman’s Message Dear Villagers, I was been reading some historical facts about Old Windsor recently which said that there has been evidence of human activity in the area since 4100 BC. How amazing is that! Just goes to show that for literally thousands of years people have chosen to live in this fantastic village. No wonder every year we come together to celebrate this village and the community spirit that makes it such a special place to live by holding our very own Carnival, special in that the festivities go on all weekend. Kicking the weekend off is Friday night, OLD WINDSOR CARNIVAL 2019 Donkey Derby night. Generously sponsored by The Old Windsor Dental Practice this year, for which we are very grateful. It is a fun evening for everyone, donkey racing, the tote, the beer tent and all the fun of the fair, what is not to love? All capped off when darkness falls The Carnival would not happen without the by a fabulous firework display.

You can nominate at any point during the year – you don’t have to wait until Carnival time. Farewell Pete Reddy I am very sorry to report that Carnival stalwart and Vice President, Pete Reddy, recently lost his long and brave battle with cancer and MS. Pete joined the Carnival committee in the late-1970s as a ‘helping hand’ – an always-needed and much valued role. In 1982 Pete took on organising the Donkey Derby from the Norris family who had run it since its inception. Pete, with ever-increasing family involvement, continued to run the Donkey Derby until 2014; a 33-year stint during which the event contributed significantly to the Carnival’s annual surplus. In addition Pete was always involved in other aspects of the Carnival throughout the year and particularly on the Carnival weekend. Pete was appointed a Vice President of the Carnival last year in recognition of his contribution over some 40 years. He will be remembered for his contribution to many village organisations and activities and with admiration and affection by the Carnival committee, particularly on Donkey Derby evenings. Chris Simon, President page 15

Carnival Day SATURDAY 8th JUNE In the main arena... Falconry Displays by Michael Davie The sport of hunting with falcons and hawks is believed to date back at least 2,000 years and to have originated in the Far East. As world trade grew, so falconry spread to Europe, where it quickly became a popular pastime of royals and aristocrats, and for many other people a way of putting fresh meat onto the table. OLD WINDSOR CARNIVAL 2019 Today it is hugely popular with people of all ages rediscovering the excitement and skills of working with birds of prey. Michael will be displaying and flying owls, falcons, hawks and other birds of prey. The Eagle Owl, the peoples choice, gliding with huge wings across the arena never fails to impress. www.falconry-displays.com Marching band: The Wimbledon and Wandle Scout Band has been running for many years under different name due to district changes, 15 years ago the band was named. We play a variety of instruments: base drum, snare drum, trumpets, cymbals, bell-lyres, saxophone and base instruments. Next year – it could be you! If you run, or are involved in, a group which could possibly feature in our centre ring on Carnival Day, please conact us. Dancers, gymnastics, martial arts... the sky’s the limit!

Last year’s winner was Ava Peppiatt, who composed and read the following poem: Why I love Old Windsor I have lived in Old Windsor all my life. It’s such a special place to live. There are lots of beautiful places to walk to: The River Thames, Great Park and Windsor Castle are a few. I’ve learnt to walk and ride my bike here. To swim, dance and play piano. So many people give their time to help us grow. Brownies, Rainbows, kids’ discos and this show. OLD WINDSOR CARNIVAL 2019 I can walk to school, the park and friends’ houses. Together we floss, hide rocks and watch the Royal Wedding. Our parents help at school and climb on top of Carnival lorries, So we can have fun and no worries. We are a village of many talents. We know where to go for great food, haircuts, balloons or a delicious cake. Friends come to watch me dance and ask if I’m okay. We help if someone falls off their bike and when times are bad. In my village I don’t often feel sad. I live in Old Windsor. It’s the best place for me. It’s helping me to be the best I can be. page 27
