🌞 **A MASSIVE THANK YOU FROM THE PLOUGH INN HUTTON HENRY SUMMER FAIR!** 🌞
Well… we survived! 😂
The weather may have decided it was auditioning for *“Britain’s Got Rain”*, but thankfully **YOU LOT** turned up, smiled, shopped, ate cake, listened to music, watched fire being thrown around (safely! 🔥), and generally made the day absolutely brilliant! ❤️
So, before we collapse somewhere with a cup of tea and a large slice of leftover cake, we really need to say a HUGE **THANK YOU** to the wonderful people who made the fair happen…
👏 **Hutton Henry and Station Town Parish Council** – for providing the funding for the portaloos. Because whilst community spirit is wonderful, nobody wants to test its limits! 🚽😂
🌿 **ARK Therapies** – for kindly allowing us the use of their land. We really appreciate you letting us take over your patch of grass for the day!
🙌 **ALL OUR AMAZING VOLUNTEERS** – those who helped before, during and after the fair. Quite simply, without you I would have had to do EVERYTHING myself… and frankly, nobody needed to witness that level of stress! 😂 You were absolute stars.
🛍️ **ALL OUR STALL HOLDERS** – thank you for bringing such a fantastic variety of products and giving everyone plenty of opportunities to spend money they probably promised themselves they wouldn't! 😜
🎤 **DAVE SUNLEY** – thank you for singing your heart out and being an all-round fantastic entertainer. You absolutely helped keep the atmosphere going!
🔥 **BECCI HARRISON** – thank you for your absolutely **SCORCHING fire show!** We may have had questionable weather, but you certainly brought the heat! 🔥
🍰 **HUTTON HENRY COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION** – thank you for providing the cakes. Because quite honestly, is there any community event that isn't improved by cake? We think not. 🍰❤️
And finally…
❤️ **A MASSIVE, ENORMOUS, GIGANTIC THANK YOU TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO CAME ALONG!**
Despite the weather doing its best to dampen things (literally!), everyone who attended was incredibly generous, cheerful and supportive — and thanks to you, we have managed to raise some much-needed funds for two fantastic local causes.
💰 **Money raised after ALL expenses:**
🌟 **£549 for ARK Therapies**
🌟 **£100 for Hutton Henry Community Association**
That's **£649 raised** thanks to all of you! 👏👏👏
The weather may not have been the kindest, but **the people of Hutton Henry certainly were.** ❤️
Thank you for turning up, joining in, spending, eating, laughing, dancing, clapping, volunteering and generally being bloody brilliant!
We couldn't have done it without you.
**THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! ❤️**
Now… who wants to organise next year's weather? Because we're definitely putting someone else in charge of that bit! 😂🌦️
