 St. Mary’s Adderbury Christmas Tree Festival

The Christmas Tree Festival was a great success and very much enjoyed by all our many visitors over the weekend.  The trees looked wonderful in the beautiful setting of our church and all the tree sponsors had been so creative in the ways in which they had decorated their trees. 
The winners of the Best Decorated Trees  - as voted for by the public were as follows:
Overall Winner of the Best Decorated Tree:    Sarah's Sparkle
Winner of the Business Category Best Decorated Tree:     The Bell, Adderbury
Winner of the Community Category Best Decorated Tree:     Adderbury and District WI
Winner of the Children and Young People Category Best Decorated Tree:      High Flyers After School Club
Congratulations to all of them.
How much money has been raised by the event will be published as soon as the figure is known.
