The
weekend
exceeded
my
wildest
dreams,
I
had
said
that
if the
Festival
went
as
well
as
the
preparation
it would
be
a great
success,
and
I
was
right.
On
the
Wednesday
and
Thursday
when
the arrangers
were
doing
their
flowers,
the
church
came"
alive
with
the
scent
of
the
flowers,
the
atmosphere
was
electric
with everyone
meeting
old
friends
and
new.
Under
the
tower
was
transformed
into
a
very
high
class
antique
store.
The
north
and
south
chapels
had
been
cleared
and display
boards
were
erected
and pictures
that
had
been
painted
in the
art
classes
took
pride
of
place,
also
four
large
boards
depicting
the
seasons
of
the
year
which
I
understand
every
child
in
Cawston
School had worked
on.
We
had
pictures
of
choirs
old
and
new,
photo's
of the
playgroup,
and
a very
good
scale
model
of
Cawston
Heath,
some
lovely
pottery
and more
pictures
from
pupils
of
the
school.
The
Friday
evening
went
very
well;
it enabled
all
the
sponsors
to see
the
song
titles
they
had
chosen for
their
loved
ones,
and
all the
flower
arrangers
to
see
the
finished
results
of their
hard work, our surprise
guest
was
Melita
Morgan
and her daughter Angel
from Aylsham,
Melita
is
starring
in a film called 'Mr Lonely' and
she
has other films in the pipe line.
The
Church opened
at 10 am on the Saturday, and that was the start to a very busy
weekend,
all
the stalls, Tombola, Cakes,
Raffle,
Craft,
Face Painting, Bric-a-brac
and games were
very
busy all weekend,
the
scout
hut had been
turned
into'
St
Agnes
Lite Bites',
mixed
rolls
and
delicious
cakes
were
served
every
day
also
a produce
stall
with home
grown
goods.
It is
impossible for me to name all my helpers as there were so many
people
and I would
hate to
miss anybody out, therefore can
I say a VERY
BIG
THANK
YOU TO
EVERYONE who
had
a hand
in making
the weekend such
a
big success.
The Income for the weekend
including sponsorship
etc.
£5937.65
The Expenses £1768.30
so the
money
raised
for the
weekend
was £4169.35.
A very good result.
