All
Saints Summer Fete
The
Fete this year is on Saturday July 24th, which
is also River Festival Saturday. Since there are
afternoon weddings in church, we are open from
Many
people have offered to man stalls, but we need more help
with setting up and taking down. We also need second-hand
books, handicrafts, bric-a-brac and lots and lots of
cakes. Since it is late in the growing season, the plant
stall will consist of potted-up perennials. So please
walk around your gardens and see which cuttings you can
take and which plants you can split and pot up.
The
empty jams jars now need to come back to church with
something in them for the Tombola stall and there are
plenty more Summer Draw tickets for you to sell. Please
remember to return the stubs and money for the ones you
have already sold.
The
Fete is in aid of the Restoration Fund and by the end of
this year we would like to see the South Choir Aisle
filled with scaffolding, which will mean that the next
section of roof above it is being restored. The cost of
this is £120 000, so the Fete and Draw need to raise an
awful lot of money.
