Earlier this summer, here at Wandering Educators we brought you a preview of the great music, stories, and craic to be had at the Hebridean Festival on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland's Outer Hebrides. The Festival Team have been wrapping things up from this year and planning for next summer. They've sent on this note

Dates for 2010...

Dates have been set for next year's anniversary festival, yes 15 years and still going. See you 14 - 17 July 2010!

Also a quick note to let you know that our gallery pages have now been updated. Some fabulous pictures by Leila Angus once again, bringing a flavour of the event across the programme and venues. Have a look to see if you can see anyone you know http://www.hebceltfest.com/gallery/.

We have one week left to run for our competition, only rules are that you must have attended this year's festival. More from http://www.hebceltfest.com/questionnaire/.

Finally, a word of thanks to all festival goers on behalf of Macmillan Nurses. They managed to collect over £1700 during this year's festival. This is a hugely worthwhile charity and we are delighted for them and also deeply grateful to all who so generously contributed.
