MEMBERS of the Rotary Club of Skipton Craven brought a touch of spring to Skipton Town Hall for their Step into Spring Tea Party, hosting 55 members of the community.
After a tea of sandwiches, cakes, scones with Cornish clotted cream and a glass of Bucks Fizz, the guests were entertained by The Skipton Choir, followed by bingo and finishing with a grand raffle for which most of the prizes were donated by Tesco and Morrisons.
The event was sponsored by the Rotary Club of Skipton Craven with the support of Greatwood and Horseclose Community Centre, Carers’ Resource and Skipton Step into Action whose volunteers also provided the daffodil-themed floral displays on each table and assisted with the serving of the tea.
One of the guests later told the club: “Thank you for a wonderful afternoon. We enjoyed every single minute of it, the food was fabulous, the entertainment first class, and the welcome given to us by everyone was really appreciated.”
Rotarian David Squire, event organiser said: “Our last afternoon tea was in December 2019, so it was great to see a few old friends, and welcome some new ones, after a two-year break due to Covid. We look forward to the the next event – perhaps a ‘Step out of Summer’ Tea Party in early September."
