St Peter's Church Spring Fayre
Saturday 24th March 2007, 10:00am-12:30pm

Stanley Community Centre

St Peter’s annual Spring Fayre was held at the Community Centre on Saturday 24th March was a massive success.  It raised £1,047 which was almost £200 more than last year’s event.  This was despite the fact that although the event was busy, there didn’t seem to be quite the numbers of visitors as previous years.

As always, there were some excellent stalls: the cake stall and the chocolate egg tombola both sold out very quickly, and the Bottle tombola was also very popular.  The craft stall offered some wonderful handmade items which were beautifully presented.  There were also handmade greetings cards, a toy stall, book stall, ’name-the-dog’, bric-a-brac and pop and crisps stall. 

This year there was also a handbags and accessories stall which offered a range of new and second-hand bags, scarves and belts.  The ever popular plant stall was located outside and was also very popular, thanks to the mild weather.  Visitors were also able to enjoy a variety of refreshments including tea, coffee and hot cross buns.

Many thanks to the organisers of the event for all their planning and hard work.  Thanks also to the stallholders who always work very hard to make their stalls successful, and often put in many hours of work to prepare items for sale.  There were also many people who donated raffle prizes and items for the stalls.  Lastly, thank you to everyone who came to the Spring Fayre gave it such great support.

DATE FOR THE DIARY :- Saturday June 23rd 2007 - The St Peter's Summer Gala!
