Before
Christmas 2006, Wareham Town Council interviewed 5 applicants
for the post of Wareham town crier, and Jacquie Hall was
the successful applicant. She was appointed to this honorary
position on January 1st 2007.
Jacquie can be seen in the centre of town, and at the
market on the Quay, on a Saturday morning. Jacquie has
also accompanied the Wareham Mayor during the Beating
of the Bounds in Poole Harbour, and greeted guests at
the Mayor's Charity Ball.
Her
duties will include many civic duties during the year,
but also she will enter into Town Crier competitions around
the South, promoting Wareham and the surrounding area.
She
has worked at Purbeck District Council since 1987, and
has been a Dorset Button for the same amount of time.
This is a North West clog team consisting of 30 ladies
regularly seen dancing throughout Dorset during the summer.
If that wasn't enough, she is also Treasurer of the Hemsbach
Twinning Association, Secretary of Wareham Whalers the
Dorset Shanty Crew and Deputy Chair of the Wareham Music
Festival.
