Just back from Carols at St James' where Liz Vose announced the winners of the Boroughbridge & District Community Care Tree Festival and we announced the winners of the Late Night Shopping competitions. The Mayor and Mayoress, Geoff and Lilian Haldenby, had quite a challenge to get around all the entires. They were very impressed by the effort everyone had made and said they found it hard to choose.
Their winners were:
Best Team Effort: the Fairies and their fairy grotto at The Beauty Shop
Best Dressed Individual: Maggie from Oxfam - pictured with the Mayor and Mayoress
Best Tree Themed Window: KM & G Farrer
Well done to everyone who entered - the town looked a picture! If you have any photos of your entries please do send them to us: secretary@boroughbridgect.co.uk
