CHILLINGTON SUMMER FAIR 2007
At the Chillington Summer Fair on Saturday 23rd August we enjoyed one of the hottest days of the year. Colourful bunting fluttered in the breeze around busy stalls and gazebos shaded visitors who sat enjoying the BBQ, cream teas or a drink from the bar (thanks to Jed of the Open Arms for this). The many attractions included the Greasy Pole, Tin Can Alley, the Electric Light Show and appearances from Pepper the Owl and the No Limits baton twirlers. There were many stalls, including the popular cake and book stalls, and the event was ably compered by Dave Crunchy Carrot Gritton. Thank you to everyone who helped on the day and to all who came along to support us.
