After months of planning, plenty of strops from Freddie Furlong, and frantic calls to Michael Fish about the weather, Family Fun Day 2012 went off without a hitch.
We had a slight down pour in the morning and staff were busy working hard to make sure the racecourse was ready come rain or shine! The picnic area was in tip top shape for happy racegoers.
We must say a big thank you to all the stalls who turned up on the day, who helped make the event so special. So thanks to WOW Stuff for bringing along their Attacknid, Promise Dreams who raised a massive £539.32 on the day, Dudley Zoo who bought along a very artistic face painter and also a snake, cockroaches, guinea pigs and a ferret called Smoky, Core Children’s Services working in partnership with Birmingham City Council, The Merry Hill Centre and Virgin Active!
We have had so much good feedback so far from happy parents and kids, which makes the day even more worthwhile!
If you did enjoy the day, and want to come again, we have a packed racing schedule from September to December. Ladies Day on September 8th and Boxing Day racing are two of our biggest fixtures of the year!
