Sherington Fete 2013 So the fete has gone for another 2 years and despite its best efforts the weather did not ruin it. The high winds created a lot of problems for us as organisers and also to the stall holders. It seems that Gazebos cannot withstand anything above 20mph an issue we can all take into account when placing one in the back garden. The wind proved too powerful for the birds of prey which is a shame as the closeness to the birds at our event is part of the attraction. Although the Alpaca’s proved a hit. I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the fete whether it was as a stall holder, musician, vintage car displayer, food supplier and of course the people who turned up and enjoyed themselves. Special thanks to Allan, John, Martin, Tony, Dave and Phillip (congratulations on the book), Trevor, William, Josh, Trish, Christine, Colin Storey, Anita, Chloe, Paula, Mandy and many more for your contribution. A special word for two groups of people from out of the village; Stephen Isherwood (Car rides) and Kidsplay MK (Climbing wall) who gave their time for free and donated all the money they raised to the fete. As for ourselves we raised £250 for the Church Fund which is an improvement on the previous fete, and we have a fully functioning set of Gazebos and kids race equipment (all of which we can let out for a small fee to cover any damages). The raffle for Willen Hospice raised nearly £350, congratulations to the lady who won the first two main prizes. The Lightening experience is a tremendous prize, as an ex RAF man I remember watching them fly. We will be back in two years to do it all again, if you fancy giving us a hand we never turn away volunteers. Once again thank you for either doing something or turning up, it makes me feel the effort and hair pulling is worth it. Regards Jeff Charles
