ORGANISERS of Darwen Gala 2000 says they are still getting inquiries about a mistake published in a council millennium brochure months after it was made.

Darwen Gala Committee has confirmed the event will take place on Saturday, August 19, at Borough Road field.

Treasurer Vanessa Moore said: "There was a mix-up at the council about the date and venue earlier in the year and there is still some confusion. We have been told the error has recently been copied in another publication.

"There has been no change other than the gala will be bigger and better than in previous years."

Stalls are now available. Arts and crafts people are also being invited to sign up for site in the craft fair marquee. For an application form ring 01254 760468.
