The Hawkedon Fete

Hawkedon Hall hosted the village fete on 3^rd September. Many more people than expected came along, so the small band of helpers and organisers had their work cut out! The event had the enviable problem of running out of things to sell - the produce stand and the barbque proving to be particularly popular. The excellent sausages and burgers were kindly supplied by Humphrey’s Butchers in Clare, who also donated the prize for the ‘Bowling for the Pig’ competition.

Many thanks to those attended the event and of course to those that helped. In particular, the village owes a debt of gratitude to Tim and Linda Cawston for kindly allowing their garden to be invaded once more.
