Sunny weather draws crowds to Burnham-On-Sea's Picnic In The Park

Big crowds took full advantage of the good weather on Sunday afternoon (July 8th) to flock to Burnham-On-Sea's Picnic in the Park.

Organisers breathed a sigh of relief as the sun came out, attracting big crowds to Burnham's Manor Gardens for over four hours of live music from Dave Busker Harris, The Fallen Apples, Nicky Swann and The Glow Globes.

Mayor Ken Smout, pictured above with Town Clerk Eileen Shaw, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "After so much poor weather this summer it was great to see the sun draw out the crowds."

Organiser Mike Murphy from CADS, the Burnham and Highbridge Cultural Arts and Development Society added that the event had been a "great success."

CADS holds several free music events a year for the benefit of people in both towns.
