Another Successful Craft Fair

Early morning last Saturday Natland was a swarm of activity as stallholders came to set up their stalls and people came to put their precious craftwork into the exhibition at the Village Hall. There was a steady hum all day as people came to buy, to admire and to meet friends. The morning was fair, but people still came in the afternoon through thunderstorms and heavy showers. Village Hall committee members had rallied their organisations to provide cakes and raffle prizes, to move trestle tables, to man the entrance hall and the exhibition and to make sure that this, the 14th Craft Fair and Exhibition, ran smoothly. The financial reward was £729 for the Village Hall, and many thanks were expressed at the Village Hall Committee meeting last Monday to all the people who took part.
