4th Rochford Scouts Summer Fete!!!
Saturday 18th June 2016
The rain held off and we even had a glimpse of the sun, to make a really successful day at the 4th Rochford Scout Hall in Church Walk, Rochford, where over 200 people came along!!!
A great turnout to support all the sideshow stalls, tombola, raffle, beer tent, BBQ, cake stall etc. A crew from Essex Fire Service let visitors explore their engine and the fire jugglers from Pluto Juggling in Westcliff were a big hit with the crowds, as were the dogs in the Dog Show!!! It was great fun seeing kids v adults in the egg n spoon race with a twist in the spider's web and watching them pitching a tent against each other too!!! (The adults won!!!)
We'd like to give a big “thank you” to B & M Stores for donating Beer & Wine and also to Morrison's at Eastwood for donating a £20 voucher to purchase more Beer & Wine! All in all, a great day, which ended with some fantastic prizes being won in the Raffle!!! We raised just over £2000, part of which will go towards the Scouts Summer Camp to Germany in August!
