In conjunction with the Dumfries Standard Newspaper, we are running a competition for children aged 10 and under.  There are 8 Pudsey Posters in shops and other premises in the centre of Dumfries and the children must find these and send their answers to the Standard by midday on 16th August 2010.  The first correct entry drawn by the editor will win a small Pudsey Bear, 4 tickets to the afternoon festival and have their photograph taken with the real Pudsey on the day.

Dancers took part in the Big Man Walking event in Dumfries, wearing T-Shirts advertising Dance Scottish for Pudsey.  A collection raised £66.26 for Children in Need - video here

Alex Gray, the Chairman of the Royal Scottish Dance Society, has recorded a message of support for Dance Scottish for Pudsey – video here.


In the afternoon, a non-competitive festival where teams of dancers in fancy dress will perform in the main hall at DG One, spectators welcome

Any kind of Scottish dance, ceilidh, country, highland, old tyme could be featured, but the dancers must be dressed to reflect either the title of the dance, or Pudsey Bear and Children in Need

In the evening there will be a country dance where the dancers may like to wear something which shows they are Dancing Scottish for Pudsey!!

The Cairndale Hotel is holding a dance on Friday 22nd October 2010 with Nicol McLaren, and a Ceilidh on Sunday evening (details) so take advantage of their rates and make it a dancing weekend (see other events)
