Mid-morning

The Big Splash From: 31st August 2007 To: 1st September 2007The Big Splash is to be held once again on the River Spey by the Old Bridge Inn where there is enough space to accommodate a sizable event. The idea "The big splash" was born from an event held in Sweden which involves people launching themselves off a ramp/jump into a small lake for fun!!
New for this year: Speed climbing competition built over the river Spey, two climbers go head to head to race to the top of the wall and be the first to hit the bell, unfortunately this will involve a wet finish! There will be bands and DJs throughout the day, the bar will be open all day and food will be available all day also.
