St Peter’s Country Fayre Saturday 20th September

Thank you to everyone who called by our stall on Saturday despite the dull, drizzly weather. We had plants, books and bric-a-brac for sale, all donated by our volunteers and supporters. The ping pong game and the treasure garden were both popular and helped us take just over £250 on the day.

The treasure was hidden in the pond and was won by a local boy.
