Keynsham Town Council organising the second year of Keynsham Youth Fest “is to provide an event for Keynsham Youth” and to celebrate young people and promote the positive activities and opportunities they can and do participate in. Youth Fest will allow the many youth organisations (with members aged 7 years upwards) of Keynsham to come together to show off their skills and talents. Our programme includes dance and musical performances on the bandstand, sporting organisations giving displays, a selection of stalls with youth groups promoting their organizations, free inflatables, a large inflatable football pitch provided by Somerset FA on behalf of Keynsham Town Junior Football Club, skateboarding and scooter exhibitions and competitions run by Crucial BMX. One of the supporters of this year Youth Fest is the Quest for 2012 project (which is funded by Bath and North East Somerset Council and Future Bath Plus). Quest is about encouraging young people and communities to mark 2012 as a special year with projects and activities that “make a local difference”. Keynsham Youth Service and Quest are planning youth volunteering and training to support young people to join in and take a lead. Quest are also providing a touring performance by Battle of the Winds that opens celebrations of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Sailing events in Weymouth (July 26th-28th), created and produced by Cirque Bijou and the Desperate Men, in collaboration with seven lead artists gathered from across the South West plus the integrated performance company Breathe. Keynsham Youth Fest will mark the last performance of the Battle for the Winds South West tour including circus skills and their unique cycle powered wind machine a “flatbed” man powered vehicle as a portable stage. We hope to have a youth led parade to launch the festival, marshalled through the High Street that would include the Battle of the Winds cycle powered vehicle. The parade will be a showcase of our talent with young people on scooters, BMX, drummers and dancers.
