Diamond Jubilee
Village Celebrations over the weekend in June 2012
In
the week leading up to the Jubilee everyone was encouraged to decorate
their homes with bunting and flags. Early on Sunday morning as the
dawn chorus got underway, a panel of judges visited all areas of
the Parish in their quest to find the best dressed home or
public space. |
The
presentation took place in the Marquee later but I think they were
all winners in their own right. Well done to everyone who took part. |
Sunday
the 3rd of June and the original plans for the day were for the
celebrations to have been an open air event through and through
but , as with all such events in the dear old UK, the weather decides
these things for us. Undaunted, our own "Garston Gallopers"
braved the conditions and danced for a very appreciative audience
out in the car park - and the rain. |
Time
now for a touch of audience participation, and in spite of the rain,
there were plenty of willing volunteers. |
Once inside
the marquee the celebrations continued unabated |
Commemorative
Jubilee mugs were given to all youngsters of the parish under 18
years old courtesy of East Garston Parish Council. |
