2009 is the 122nd Year for Eastleigh Carnival Association, we hope this will be one of its best ever.

With the generous support of the people of Eastleigh, Eastleigh Carnival Association gave away goods to the value of about £4,000 last year.

Last year Hampshire & IOW Air Ambulance received £2,500 from us to buy 25 special suits for wearing while on duty. They had to order them from Australia. We also gave away gifts to many others please click here to see the list.

One of the first events for the year was to choose a new carnival court to represent the Association during the year. This year the event was held on Friday 3rd April 2009 at the Eastleigh Railway Institute. The Judges had a very difficult job but they chose well. The Queen is Lucy Phillips, aged 19, and the Princesses are Taylor Harder, aged 11, and Shannon Newsom, aged 10.

There will be lots of exciting things going on during the week.
