  • July 2018 Cresset
    July/August 2018 Bottisham WI Community Fayre On Saturday June 9th the Community Fayre took place on the Primary School playing field. The stalls were ready, the ladies serving the cream teas were poised, it wasn’t cold and it wasn’t raining. All we needed was people to come and support us and you did in hundreds. Proceedings were opened by Roger Jenyns, whose grand mother was the founding member of Bottisham WI one hundred years ago. Master of ceremonies, Richard Morris, made sure everything ran smoothly and even commentated on two horse races. We were entertained by the ‘Panic Steel Band’ and the Devils Dyke Morris Men. There was a decorated bicycle competition, judged by Jill Jenyns. The WI served over a hundred cream teas, the Scouts provided Hot Dogs and hamburgers and the newly named Bottisham Community Sports and Social Club ran the bar. Numerous clubs and societies manned their stalls and with a very high village turn out, hopefully attracted the attention of some new supporters and raised some money for their respective organizations. At the end of the afternoon, everyone seemed happy that the day had been a huge success. A big thank you to everyone who contributed to make this a truly terrific day. Sandra Clark President - Bottisham WI June Issue 463 Welcome to the July issue of your village, or should we also be calling it our community magazine. Last month, two things happened which may mark a change in direction for our village, both potentially positive. Firstly, managed mightily by the WI and their helpers was the Bottisham Community Fayre.
