| Potto Open Gardens
Sunday 20th July 2008
The event
was very well supported, despite the odd shower, we had over
300 people attend. Thanks should go to all those who put
in such hard work in preparation, including especially those
who opened their gardens and manned the cake and plant stalls,
not forgetting the splendid displays at the village hall of
local artwork and flower arrangements.
Special thanks
to Pam Fanthorpe, without her enthusiasm the event wouldn't
have happened and to her and John for opening their gardens
up for the superb cream teas - and all who helped serve them.
Final figures
are not available but we will have made a healthy profit to
go towards the village hall improvement fund.
