Kennet Heath Christmas Fair – This Weekend!
Plans for the KHRA Christmas Fair are gathering pace to bring a really special day out for Kennet Heath residents, family and friends. Taking place at Moorside Community Centre from 10am to 3pm on Saturday November 21st we have a great day planned for everyone.
Our FREE Father Christmas will be greeting all the children and giving them a little something from Santa. They can have their face painted by a very talented Kennet Heath resident, or take part in our games and competitions. Our colouring competition for the children is on the third page of this newsletter. Children can colour it now and need to ensure entries are posted in the Competition Post Box no later than 1pm on the day of the fair. Alternatively, children can colour and enter at our craft corner. This has the added benefit of leaving Mum and Dad free to browse all our interesting stalls!
We will have a fabulous array of gifts to choose from, some of which are from local people from Kennet Heath who have been persuaded to show us a selection of their wares. We’ll have some cute button bracelets and felt brooches, alongside some truly beautiful hand crafted oak furniture. A collection of bespoke fine silver jewellery capturing children’s fingerprints in solid silver will make a lovely Christmas gift for all members of the family, and you can pick up a range of preserves, handmade sweets and tasty treats. Be prepared to purchase your home made Traditional Christmas Cakes and Puddings which will be a taste sensation.
The very popular range of Usborne books will be available, along with Avon, Cookie Jars, candles, bags and clothes.
There will be something for everyone, including the cards and the wrapping paper and a bow on top!
We are going to maintain our reputation of having a Raffle with a vast amount of fantastic prizes, and you
can compete in the Tombola, The Treasure Hunt, Guess the weight of the cake and many other great
competitions. We’ll have lots of surprises in store, and of course you can feast on our cake stall – nothing beats a
mince pie and a cuppa once you have finished all your Christmas shopping! Our favourite local cook will also be providing the same incredibly popular samosas that sold out at last year’s Table Top Sale.
Please join us and get Christmas started in style.
We would very much appreciate any donations of Tombola or Raffle prizes, any home baked cakes for the Refreshments and as many willing volunteers as possible to set up, run stalls and clear up at the end.
