Garden Party, August 10th

Over 100 people attended our first fundraising event on a blustery, but sunny Sunday afternoon in the beautiful gardens of Mill House. All enjoyed a provided lunch, which included dessert, and a glass of wine. There were stalls encouraging the guests to identify historic objects, and also to identify town locations, we also had  a raffle with some lovely prizes, and a game of Pooh Sticks was enjoyed on the river, with the winner, Mr Jake Jacobs collecting a bottle of champagne.

The event was very successful and raised £1250 for the Society, a much needed boost at this time, and we would like to thank all those who supported the event, either by attending, or by assisting, or providing sponsorship of items for the event itself.

Some pictures here give an impression of the day.
