The Cricket Club Treasure Hunt ~ 2008

On Sunday April 27th East Garston Cricket Club held a car treasure hunt which was set by Nigel and Sue Hayes.  Nine cars were set off at five minute intervals from the Bell at Boxford.  All nine cars were successful in following the clues and ultimately found the village hall at East Garston as the end of the hunt.
As well as following the clues to find their way "home" the entrants had to put names to photos taken of various buildings, landmarks etc., do a collection of items that could be found on their journey and fill in the answers to a local trivia quiz. It was therefore quite an achievement that the winning car only had two pairs of eyes - Alan Breadmore and Peter Cook!!  ~  Well done Alan and Peter.

In second place was Russell, Emma and Tom Highnett and in third was Colin and Bonnie Pounds and Mick and William Highnett.  Sue had prepared a fantastic cold lunch with a hot sponge pudding for afters which was thoroughly enjoyed by all the entrants. A thoroughly enjoyable social event for the cricket club which also made a profit of £100 for the Cricket Club funds.
