Festival of Flowers at the Church
A lot of planning, thought and creative talent was apparent at St. Nicholas Church on Saturday and Sunday for the Flower Festival resulting in many beautiful and clever arrangements depicting many Saints. About £400 was raised from donations and teas from those who visited, which will go towards the upkeep and preservation of our historic church.
Chearsley Cricket Club’s Midsummer Madness
Another successful fund-raising venture took place on Saturday 17th July, on a lovely warm evening, dancing to Hair of the Dog and enjoying a pig roast. Novel entertainment was provided by several well deserving residents as they took their punishment for various offences in the stocks. Onlookers had no hesitation in paying to throw wet sponges at them or to splatter them with cream! They were all good sports and well done to them.
