The opening ceremony was brilliant – not only did we have two local luminaries cutting the ribbon i.e. our Mayor Ken Pollard with MP Alistair Strathern, others participating included the Shefford Prince and Princess, plus an adult Elsa in fabulous costume and character from her adjacent Be Our Guest Palace. There were sponsors there from Country Properties and BEST Academies, Nicola Burr represented Plastic Free Shefford and Erica Bowler showed up from the Baptist Church. Lesley Whiteman was active taking photos and representing the Garage Sale Trail, as well as the Shefford Mind Body Spirit and Craft Fair at the STMA next Friday.
All in all it was a cool gathering of Shefford people active in the community. Later that evening activity focused on the Community Hall AGM where a small but effective group gathered to see the newly refurbished hall with improved Heating and Air Conditioning as well as a new suspended ceiling for acoustics and insulation making this very central hall a very desirable venue for anything from a kids party to a town meeting, line dancing or Tai Chi.
There is so much on this week and I obviously can’t get to everything – so I would love to receive contributions with photos (with subject approvals) from event organisers to [email protected].
