Gumboot day

Gumboot day
What is gumboot day? 

Gumboot day  is a native celebration of Taihape, New Zealand . It occurs the Tuesday after Easter, and has been a regular event since 1985. It is a celebration of all things to do with gumboot, and includes the famous gumboot throwing contest.The aim of the festival is to break the world record for the longest gumboot throw. It is a family event, which includes a number of other competitions such as the best-dressed gumboot and ‘shoot the loop’ with gumboots. Gumboots can also be tossed skyward on any day of the year in the official Gumboot throwing lane located in the 'Outback', just behind Taihape's main shopping centre. 

Here is a photo of the poster we designed to advertised Gumboot Day.

I really enjoyed this day because
