Sedgemoor
tourism group celebrates its 20 year with event at Brean
More
than 150 local business owners and tourism bosses gathered in
Brean on Tuesday
night to celebrate
the 20th anniversary of Sedgemoor Tourism Association.
 Bob
Nicholson, Chairman of the group, was presented with a framed
certificate and photo (pictured) to mark his 20th year in the
job.
And
certificates were also handed to over 30 of the group's members
who have helped the organisation boost the number of visitors
who flock to Burnham, Brean and Berrow each summer.
Representatives
from the county, district and town councils were in attendance,
alongside dozens of local business owners.
They enjoyed a carvery dinner, fundraising auction and entertainment
from a live band.
Mr
Nicholson looked back at over the last 20 years, thanked his committee
members and paid tribute to Richard and Bridget House, owners
of Brean Lesiure Park, for their "unwavering" support
over the years.
The
event came a week after Sedgemoor
Tourism Association launched its new-look Web site, as reported
here.
