Fair Green Easter Eggstasy

Fair Green was covered with families with young children this morning, following the Easter Egg trail.  We were expecting about 20 children, but had over 100, with queues outside the Backspace to get started.  This will probably now be an annual event.

Children had to follow a trail, to a series of wooden egg-shaped signs around the Green, and use a rubber stamp on the sign to mark their cards. They also had a little quiz question at each sign.

And that’s not all. We had a giant Easter bunny wandering around chatting to the children, and an IMPS play session in the Backspace behind the Angel Cafe.

We now have three lovely little chilren’s seats, made of English oak, for the play area.  They were carved and installed by the sculptor Tim Page.  Aren’t they sweet?

Pancake Race Day 2012

Weren’t we lucky with the weather! The predicted bad weather came on Saturday leaving Sunday sunny and clear but cold.

Once again the pancake races were great fun, with races for all ages, and a team race. Cold people had a choice of burgers and hot dogs, or a pancake to warm them up, and our usual tea and cake stall.

A huge thanks to our sponsors for donating the prizes.
