On the ropes. . . these cubs are in training for a tug-of-war competition at Meltham Gala. The photo captures the determination and teamwork of these young boys from the Friday pack of the 5th Holme Valley (Meltham) Cubs. With their hands tightly gripping the rope, they showcase their strength and resilience as they prepare for an exciting challenge. The annual Meltham Gala week is just around the corner, set to commence on June 27 and culminate with a grand gala event in Meltham Hall Park on Sunday, July 5. This much-anticipated celebration will feature a vibrant parade, complete with floats that will make their way from Broadlands to the park. During this festive occasion, attendees can enjoy thrilling rides, explore charity stalls, witness a coal carrying competition, and be entertained by performances from local bands such as Meltham and Meltham Mills Band along with majorettes. Of course, one of the highlights will be watching these determined cubs compete in an exhilarating tug-of-war contest. Gala Committee chairman Clr Shirley Watson has promised an action-packed week filled with various activities including dancing displays, snooker competitions, school fetes, discos and even a window-dressing competition. This photograph serves as a nostalgic reminder of past times when children eagerly participated in outdoor games and community events like this memorable tug-of-war competition.
