TOWN CRIER OFF TO USA Invitation to lead back-to-school procession.
Tewkesbury's Town Crier, Mike Kean-Price has been invited to lead a prestigious procession, in Tewksbury, Massachussetts.
The Home Coming Procession in September marks the start of the new school year and Mike has been invited to head it. He flies out on his all expenses paid four day trip on September 7th.
His visit is just one more of a number of links that have been set up over the years between Tewkesbury Gloucestershire and Tewksbury Massachussetts.
Pupils from the two senior schools exchange annual visits and regular letters and there have been many private visits. The Touching Souls sculpture, which stands outside the Abbey is an exact replica of one in the American town. It was made by Tewksbury sculptor Mico Kaufman.
Citizens of Tewksbury Massachussetts also contributed generously to the restoration of the small room above the sacristy in Tewkesbury Abbey.
