Trees & Trimmings

Sunday 16th December 2007 4.30pm - 6.30pm in the Clubroom

The event will start promptly at 4.30pm at the Top Green with the official switching on of the Christmas tree lights. There will be a procession of carol-singing children leading the way to the Club Room for the rest of the evening’s festivities. Please come along and enjoy roasted chestnuts, Santa’s grotto, raffle, Christmas quiz, games, craft activities, delicious mulled wine and festive food, presentation of prizes to competition winners all followed by a musical finale.

There will be one outdoor category that could be either a decorated house and/or garden or just one window or outside tree. The judge will make his decision on Saturday 15 December so make sure you have your decorations up in good time - remember you could win the fantastic Hillsborough House Trophy.

The indoor category is also different this year; a decorated Christmas tree on the theme of a Christmas carol or song, e.g. "Angels from the Realms of Glory" could be decorated with angels, stars, moons etc made from paper, card, wood, textiles or something edible. This category is open to individuals, families, a group of friends or village groups (Pre School, School, Village Shop, Youth Group, Stitchmarsh etc etc.). The trees can be real or handmade and there is no restriction on size, though table-top trees preferred. Please hand in your creations to the Club Room by 1pm on Sunday 16th.
