Carnival Court Selection
This year we select the Carnival Court at May Fayre on 5th May, with thanks to the Rotary Club of Leighton Linslade who organise that event.
We had a marquee in the bandstand area, and ran a Silent Disco. We are grateful to Totternhoe Scouts for the use of the marquee. We will select three youngsters from school years 4-8 to represent Carnival in 2025.
The photograph shows the 2024 Court, Senior Carnival Princess is Angel-Rose (centre), Carnival Princess is Sasha (left) and Carnival Prince is Joseph (right).
The members of the Court selected at the disco, who will represent the spirit of our town’s young people, will be on the Royalty float in the Carnival Procession and will be in the arena for the prize giving.
They will hand out the cheques at the Presentation Night when the Carnival proceeds are distributed to local groups and organisations.
Court members lay poppy wreaths on Remembrance Sunday.
The Carnival Court are usually invited to take part in the switch-on ceremony for the Town Christmas lights.
