A night of Presley

CHURCH Minshull Aqueduct Marina on the Middlewich Branch of the Shropshire Union Canal recently held its 5th charity fund raiser weekend for Hearing Dogs for the Deaf, raising approximately £1,000 over the course of two days.

The weekend of the 26th and 27th of July commenced with the annual boaters' bash, with Mr Paul Larcombe—Pure Presley—hitting the stage as the great king of rock and roll, supported by The Passionettes Motown Show, writes Bernie McCrae.

A Good Rockin'

The performance included a selection of Elvis's greatest records such as ‘C.C Rider', ‘Fever' and ‘Burning Love' and attracted over 200 people. The night was an immense success and in the words of Elvis, a ‘Good Rockin'.

The owner of the Marina, Robert Parton, told:

"It was our most popular bash to date and this is our sixth. It was a great way to kick start our open weekend and it enabled us to raise some money for our chosen Charity; Hearing Dogs for the Deaf."
