Summer Lunch

On Sunday the 10 August over 40 HGTA members gathered in the Chairman's garden for Lunch. While it was not quite a Summers sunshine it didnt rain. On arrival Pimms where on order at the bar and for lunch roast beef or chicken with a selection of salads were on offer. For dessert, all home made by various social members, their was apple pie, trifle, raspberry pavlova and fruit tart. As we enjoyed wandering in the Chairman's garden, cheese and biscuit were served with coffee or tea.

Godmanchester Gala

The sun shone down on members of  HGTA at the Godmanchester Gala on Saturday 6 July. It was a slow start due to a light shower of rain, but the weather soon improved and tickets for the raffle of our Twin Town wines was soon going down well. This years winner was a local resident of Godmanchester.

HGTA were invited by the Tourist office to run a stall during the Nostradamus Festival in June.

On arrival in Salon on Tuesday, the road had been closed and the huts were busily being assembled. The following day the animals, street musicians and dancers moved into Town. Graham and Carole set up there stall with our eye catching leaflets, and with there peasant outfit they looked quite the part. Later that evening they joined the first parade through the High Street, not only walking but dancing there way round. On Friday Trish and Malcolm arrived and we were able to further enhance our stall with the HGTA popups. Malcolm and Trish also joined Carole and Graham to dress up in the specially supplied outfits. A further parade took place but on this evening we were able to sit down and enjoy the music and dancing. There was also a race taking place through the street, I don't know how they managed to keep going considering the heat. On our final day on Sunday, on several occasion we had a queue of people eager to take one of a leaflets. We hope that from all the information that was given out that we have some interested parties wanting to come to our town.
