Carnival

This will all take money and in order to raise funds the committee's first carnival opens on Friday, 20th July and will continue to August 1st. A look at the dance programme will show that some of the best bands in Ireland have been engaged and in addition the committee are giving a special door prize of £20. On the opening day there will be football matches and a fancy dress parade led by Williamstown's band under its conductor, Mr Leo Byrne. The band is well known to listeners to Radio Eireann. In addition to the dance programme there will be amusements all the time. There will be something for everyone who visits Williamstown during carnival time. Young and old can enjoy themselves and what is more they will be assured of getting a real Williamstown welcome from the friendly people of this progressive town.
