Crusaders CC have chosen to mix space and pirates together this year for their ‘Lootsforce’ carnival theme.

This year's idea was put through by one of the members and subsequently decided on by everyone in the club. The 2024 theme ‘Lootsforce’ will see the cart feature the dual themes of space and pirates, in what is expected to be an out of this world experience.

Crusaders CC are looking forward to this year and are already looking ahead to next year, as it will be the club’s 90th year.

A club spokesperson said: “We would like to thank everyone that has helped and supported the club this year. With special thanks to the Golden Ball and all the staff; Mercure Hotel; Magpie Fencing; A & L Inflatables; and Anne Marie-Gould and Bridgwater Town Council.”

“A special mention also to Tom Guest for taking on the role of our new Road Crew Captain - we wish you all the best.”
