The Fish Factory is sponsoring the 2010 Littlehampton Carnival Queen Contest by donating £500 as the first prize. This is the first time that a prize this big has been offered so the organisers are expecting a huge amount of interest.

To enter the Littlehampton Carnival Queen Contest you need to be female and aged between 15-19 years old and live within a 6 mile radius of Littlehampton. The panel of 7-8 judges are made up of the sponsors and the press, and they will be judging the entrants on:

• speech
• personality
• looks
• day wear

There will be 20 points per judging category  with a combined possible total of 80 points. The competition will be held at The Fish Factory in Littlehampton at the beginning of March. The date is yet to be confirmed. The 2010 Littlehampton Carnival Queen will parade the streets of Littlehampton, during the Littlehampton carnival on 10th July 2010. The carnival this year carries the theme of Winter Wonderland! You may be asking why such a theme is applicable during July? The answer is that the weather has been so wet and cold for the last few carnivals, it seemed like a fun idea. We totally agree – especially if the weather is tropically gorgeous for once!

If you would like information about the Littlehampton Carnival Queen Contest call Mrs Freda Hughes who is the President of the Littlehampton Carnival and her number is 716634. Alternatively you can email Freda at [email protected].

We look forward to meeting all the entrants at the competition. Good luck!
