THORNE'S QUEEN'S DIAMOND JUBILEE BANK HOLIDAY PARTY TAKES SHAPE!
The Diamond Jubilee Party organising group which includes the Town Council, Summer Fayre Committee, Thorne Needs You and Doncaster MBC can now confirm some of activities proposed for its Party in the Park on 4th June.
A variety of performers including singers, bands and dancers will provide family entertainment during the day, supported by TMCR. There will be a selection of traditional games (with medals), and a bouncy castle to keep children amused. The model railway will also be operating.

The event will run from 11am-4pm in the Memorial Park, Thorne

CHANGES AT THE CEMETERY
With effect from 16th January 2012 the vehicle gates at Thorne Cemetery will be closed, and motor vehicles will be prohibited from accessing the Cemetery, except for authorised activity, and by mobility scooters.
Chair of Amenities Committee George Derx said "The Council is concerned about danger to other cemetery users created by cars on the site, as well as damaged to grassed areas and paving. The cemetery was not designed for traffic, and traffic is not compatible with families visiting their loved ones. We recognise that this change will create some inconvenience for less mobile people, and will be taking steps to improve the pedestrian accesses."
The Cemetery will remain open as normal with the pedestrian gates locked from dusk to dawn.
For additional information please contact the Town Clerk, Jeremy Sherlock on
01405 818015 (email).
