2010 Naadam Details [DRAFT]

10 July 2010 - Highbury Fields, Islington, London

The Launch of the 2009 Mongolia Charity Rally and the London Mongolian Naadam took place on Highbury Fields, Islington, London on Saturday 11th July 2009.

In true Mongolian style all of the vehicles on the Rally were surrounded the Naadam events in the centre. Mongolians from across London and the UK attended the event, bringing Mongolian Gers, and taking part in the wrestling, archery, food, traditional music and much more.

Help Us - Marshals Needed

Can you spare an hour or two during the day to help with Marshalling at the event in 2010? We'll need people to help set up in the morning before the Naadam and clear up at the end. We'll also need marshalls to help direct the rally cars off the road. If you would like to help, please contact us.

Thanks

Go Help would like to thank the following for their cooperation in organising this event: Embassy of the Republic of Mongolia, the Mongolian Association in the United Kingdom, St John Ambulance and Islington Council (with Laura Sanna of the Parks Office) for kindly allowing us the use of Highbury Fields.
