Christmas Bazaar
At the annual Christmas Bazaar on Saturday 2 December, the Reading Room was crammed with stalls. The bric-a-brac, books and cake stalls were all popular, and there was a queue to get home baked bread, jams, chutneys and other preserves. Other visitors were happy to get tickets for the well-stocked tombola, and there was also a raffle, with many prizes. The highlight of the afternoon was the annual visit of Father Christmas, who held court in his grotto in the committee room.
The event raised around £870.
