The builders of the future have been practicing their skills at Blyth beach at a sandcastle building competition over the recent Bank Holiday weekend.
Blyth Town Council welcomed hundreds of young people and their families to get constructively creative in a competition to find the best sand structure.
The event was one of many put on during the year by Blyth Town Council to provide activities for families in the area. Previous events have included Easter Egg hunts, Crafts in the Park, and the Blyth Live music festival.
Chair of the Events Committee, Councillor Adrian Cartie said, “The Town Council are committed to encouraging quality family time in Blyth. We are grateful to Coastline Fish and Chip Restaurant and Ciccarelli’s Ice Cream parlour for donating prizes for the winning designs.
“Those who needed one were equipped with a bucket and spade and everyone was a winner. The beach was filled with wonderful structures and even giant fish. It was a great afternoon.”
The next major event from Blyth Town Council will be the fireworks event on 5th November.
