Wendover Youth Centre Party in the Garden - Massive success Many thanks to the huge crowd who turned out for the 2013 Party in the Garden at The Shoulder of Mutton on Saturday July 13th. It was a cracking event on a beautifully warm summer evening. As well as being great fun the event raised just over £2,000 for the Wendover Youth Centre. The WYC exists for the young people of Wendover. The Centre has already been saved by the generosity of many and the trustees are now raising money to ensure the longterm financial security of the Centre with the aim of employing a Youth Worker to be based at the Centre . The Party in the garden was a fantastic community event with a brilliant atmosphere made really
special by the many people who gave so generously of their time, money and skills. Special thanks must be offered to Gary King from King's Farm Shop who donated the hog roast, The Cover Collective led by Barry Evans, who played brilliant music, Emily, Caitlin and Georgina who provided entertainment and face painting for the children, and Peter who gave a picture for auction. We must also thank the many individuals and Wendover businesses who donated raffle prizes and the team of WYC volunteers led by Martin Thornton who sold raffle tickets as well as beer and the hog roast on the night. Finally, we must thank Adam and the team at the Shoulder who worked incredibly hard in extremely hot weather to make the Party a massive success.
