It all started with a clean up of the surroundings of Great Lines Heritage Park from 9:00 am till 12:30 pm. Special assistance by Medway Council in providing tools and materials for the clean-up.
There were lots of activities from 13:45 pm to capture every age and gender. Among these were sack races, egg spoon races, bouncy castle, just to name a few.
The highlight was a football match between Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (Nasir Mosque) and the Medway Ghanaian Association (MGA). The Medway Ghanaian Association (MGA) came out winners and held on to the much-converted priceless trophy.
The Medway Community was treated to afrobeat music, plenty of delicious intercontinental and Ghanaian dishes for everyone to tuck in. Not forgetting the variety of assorted drinks for all ages.
