"SUMMER" FAIR 2009
August 1st 2009 saw one of the wettest and coolest Summer Fairs ever held at St. David's. However, a large number of people braved the elements, and there was a wonderful feeling of fellowship among everyone who came. making it a happy and enjoyable occasion. There were all the usual stalls and attractions - some moved indoors, but many remained outside in the grounds, and only at the end of the day did the extra-heavy downpour cause any problems. Not surprisingly lunch and refreshments were in great demand this year. Below are a few (mobile phone) pictures of the day.
Well - it WAS a great day for ducks!
The weather didn't deter these kids from having a go on the roundabout.
Jill, a member of the 'Walk National Forest' team, who will be visiting the area in September, with 'Big Ted'.
The 'Leicestershire Co-operative (Snibston)' Brass Band gave their usual great performance -- in church this year.
We were also privileged to have a performance by the band 'My Kid Brother' who have appeared on TV with John Barrowman and McFly no less!
Then there was the DOG SHOW - a new attraction this year - and there was a good (and varied) collection of canines vying for prizes.
The dogs were in great competitive spirit, even if their handlers were a little dampened by the rain.
The two 'Ts' - Tara and Tilly, who won the 'Most Adoring Eyes' class (Tilly that is!).
... and inside, a few 'White Elephants' and bric-a-brac.
Right at the very end of the day, the rain teemed down. That umbrella was certainly needed!
============================================
As you can see, THE CLB/CGB had a wonderful time at their Grand Car Wash on July 11th, and in the process raised £57 for brigade funds.

THE CLB/CGB CHARNWOOD BATTALION SERVICE was held at St. DAVID'S on St. David's Day - March 1st 2009.
Over 80 people came along to find out about St David and how we can shine our light to others like he did.
Attached is a photo of the cake celebrating our 10 years.
