Little Thetford Feast

SAVE THE DATE: SAT 26TH OCT. The Feast and SSC are bringing you the Little Thetford Auction! David Palmer from Bargain Hunt will be your auctioneer for the night. This is a 50/50 auction. The Feast gets 50% of the proceeds and the person who donated keeps the other 50%. We are looking for good quality items, furniture, boxes of bric a brac, vintage clothing etc. No electrical items and no livestock. We considered no family members as a rule but if that family member is happy to auction off a service then we won't say no 😄. If anyone feels they can donate some dog walking time, fixing a leaking tap, help with ironing etc these will all be welcomed to be auctioned off on the night. The bar will be open, we are sure there will be fun and amusement and a chance to meet David Palmer himself. Please start thinking now about your hidden treasures and help us to make this new event a success!!

Following on from our previous post about the Twenty’s Plenty initiative. We now have the posters available for residents to collect. They have fully adhesive backs so can be applied to bins, fences, boards etc wherever you like as long as it’s your property to do so.
They will be available to collect from the following locations:
Coffee Morning tomorrow (Monday 5th August). Jane Dunseath has some and they will be an available at the Art and Craft Weekend.
Please comment below if you would like one and cannot get to these locations, we will deliver them to you.

Feast Day 2024

The Feast Committee would like to thank everyone who has helped to put on our annual event, we have two more volunteers but this is most of the gang.
After a windy start the weather was kind to us and the sun shone.

We raised over £2100 🌟🌟🌟🌟

So many helpers from baking cakes, donating raffle prizes, putting up gazebos, running a competition, donating bottles for the Tombola, supplying hay bales , being the DJ, and the classic cars were enjoyed by many.

A thank you post will come out later today.
