 We would like to start with a Native American prayer. it's universal and something to aspire to, which seems very appropriate for the occasion.


O Great Spirit
Whose voice I hear in the winds and whose breath gives life to all on Mother Earth
Hear me

I am small and weak
I need your strength and wisdom
Let me walk in beauty and make my eyes ever behold the sunset

Make my hands respect the things that you have made and my ears sharp to hear your voice
Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people
Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock

I seek strength
Not to be greater than my brother but to fight my greatest enemy: myself
Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes
So when life fades, as the fading sunset, my spirit may come to you without shame

In June 2015, Middlewich residents and visitors from across the UK joined in a weekend long celebration of the town’s renowned FAB (Folk and Boat) festival.
 
Up to 15 venues played host to music and dance throughout the weekend on the Middlewich canalside and in the town centre. Artists from around the world entertained thousands of visitors each day.
 
Together with hundreds of canal boats and the town centre setting, the Middlewich FAB festival has continued to provide a fabulous showcase of live entertainment every June since 1990, and has attracted renowned performers including Bob Geldof, Lindisfarne, Ade Edmonson, Neville Staples and many more.
 
In recognition of this amazing and unique event, the SCRIBE festival has based the 2015 under 16s and over 16s short story competitions on FAB.
