Emails received at our site since the 2008 festival.
Had a wonderful night in Slaithwaite watching and photographing the Moonraking Ceremony with the wife, friends and kids. A truly wonderful community celebration with music, drama and much humour. Some fine fish and chips too! Click here see John's pictures |
Thanks Mr Moon for such a family event last night. A cold one at that but much fun was had by all. Please see the video I posted on YouTube today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wvz54DE1NTk Feel free to use it for any publicity etc. From the other side of the big hill. Ken Morris |
Dear Mr Moon Just back from the Moonraking festival earlier this evening (my first, despite living in Slaithwaite since 2003), and I'm bowled over by the event . Absolutely fantastic! I would just like to say a big thank you to everyone involved. I would be keen to help out in some way for the next event, if possible/sensible. I do web stuff mainly, so might be able to help by sponsoring the event website or something like that? Feel free to contact me once the dust has settled. Thanks again. Regards Graham Mitchell |
I took a few photos of this years moonraking (which myself and my family enjoyed very much) and thought you might want to have a look at them/use them.

In case you could not attend, see Country File on BBC1 one Sunday 24th February at 11.00.

I wish that Mr Moon could take all the credit, but it was the result of a great team working many hours for the last two years, and loads of extra helpers on the night. Thanks to everyone. Come again in 2009. |
