The Results:
Isaac
and Lily came third with ‘Showbusiness’ - a cart featuring the glitz of
entertainers with an original guitar neck feature on the front chassis
and parrot figure head. Detachable showbiz signs made for a useful water
shield for Lily as she bra
v
ed the fireman’s hose by the Abbey.
Louie
and Toby came second with ‘Death on Wheels’ - a very sinister looking
duo with Toby pushing his Skeleton brother Louie as The Grim Reaper. The
coffin and headstone looked like they had just been dug up from the
Abbey graveyard.
and
William and Oliver first with ‘Tanzania 2017’ (or, Tan-zane-ee-uh, as
the event commentator pronounced it!) - promoting their trip next year
they crossed the finishing line in first place dressed in animal
costumes and cart with African themes. Could have been the caste from
Lion King!
Impossible to give prizes to everyone but our other worthy entrants included
Jamie
and Jack ‘R’ sporting very convincing Dennis the Menace costumes and a
cart ’The Menace’, complete with Gnasher mounted on the front. By the
end of the race the poor dog looked a bit worse for wear but it was
quite a long way round the course…
Theo
S and Marcus produced ‘Ferrari la Go Kart’ with a super paint job and
Formula 1 style bodywork. A high speed duo who had an excellent race
start and I hope we will see more of their styling ingenuity next time
we race!
Henry B and Theo
C had an excellent race and some wheel to wheel action with entrants
from the Cubs 100 team. Their theme and costume as Pokemon Mega Ruby and
Alpha SaphireX was brilliant and showed great imagination.
The
cart racing was followed by the Wheel Barrow Race and the Bed Race and
finally the Prize Giving. Thanks to the Carnival Committee for
organising the event which judging by the reactions of the crowd was
hugely enjoyed
Well done to 3rd Romsey Scout Group for being a part of it!
