Hundreds enjoy town's free Party in the Park

By trubashow

HUNDREDS of people enjoyed the wonderful weather and free activities at Edenbridge's Party in the Park on Sunday.

The event, at Stangrove Park, celebrated 50 years of the Stangrove Estate and 40 years of the Spitals Cross estate and was enjoyed by original residents of the estates as well as enthusiastic youngsters.

There was music from the 1950s and 1960s, rock climbing and laser tag at the event, which cost £3,000. All activities were free though as a result of funding from numerous groups including Edenbridge Town Council, West Kent Housing Association and the Great Stone Bridge Trust. Audrey Batchelor, who helped organise the event, said: "The park was full up. It was absolutely perfect."
