The Open Day was an invitation to the village to join us in celebrating our 80th Anniversary and we were thrilled the village supported this event by entering into the competitions and by visiting us throughout the day.
We had several competitions of art, baking, craft and photography and had entries in all categories. Judging of the baking competition was by an independent judge and she had plenty of cakes to try! They all looked really inviting, particularly the fairy cakes and chocolate cakes. The art, craft and photography competitions were voted for by the visiting villagers and there was plenty of competition; it was difficult to choose a favourite as they were all so good. After judging and a well deserved cup of tea & scone, visitors could then browse through our WI displays, have a go at stone painting with Jo & Marilyn, knit & natter with Joan, listen to some wonderful handbell ringing with bell ringers led by Mary (and also have a go themselves), listen to a poem recital by Anne or watch a slide show "80 Years of EckingtonWI".
