Church Fete 2017 – update
The Church Fete on 2nd July was a great success. The weather was perfect and it was good to see so many people enjoying themselves. Thank you to all who came along.
The profit, after expenses, came to £5,413. This is the church’s major fund-raising event of the year and makes a vital contribution to the running costs of the church.
We are extremely grateful to everyone who made the fete possible, and in particular:
- Fiona and Gavin McAlpine for their generosity and support which ensured a fabulous day
- Clive Tompkins (Cherwell Graphics Ltd) for printing all the banners, signs, leaflets, raffle tickets etc
- Charles & Caroline Landless for storing the fete equipment for us
- David and Margaret Goundrey for giving up their garage space
and the following companies for their support in donating Raffle Prizes:
- Karcher UK

- Barrett & Coe Photography
- Hinksey Heights Golf Club
- Nicholson’s Nurseries
- Richard Taylor, Grange Farm Beef, Swalcliffe
- Eagles of Deddington
