St Mary’s Fete

October 3, 2009

We were so lucky to have picked a fine day for the fete.  More visitors than ever came through the gate this year and I’m sure the dog agility demonstration given by the Wallingford Dog Training Club was a big attraction.  Of course the Fun Dog Show and the Wacky Races were also very entertaining and a great crowd puller. Well done to all the stallholders and to the raffle ticket sellers who all excelled themselves.  The winner of the Hot Air Balloon Ride was Chris Davies. A full list of prize winners is available let me know if you would like a copy. The Chairman of the Vale wrote saying how much she had enjoyed the fete and said "I do believe Upton is the cake capital of the Vale".  

The receipts to date amount to £2,800 which is amazing, well done everyone for pulling out all the stops and making the afternoon a very special occasion.
