2022 Fete News
After a 2 year absence, planning for this Year’s fete is well underway. This much-anticipated event will take place on Saturday 6 August from 2 pm in the beautiful grounds of Copinger Hall.
We would like to extend an enormous thanks to Lisa Minoprio for the use of her beautiful Garden at Copinger Hall, which is a perfect setting for the Church Fete! Without Lisa, the fete would not be what it is.

MAIN ATTRACTION
THE LOWESTOFT DOG AGILITY DISPLAY TEAM
The Lowestoft Dog Agility Display Team is the oldest dog display team in the UK. We travel East Anglia (and occasionally beyond!) on our mission to entertain.
With fast paced races, obedience, fire jumps and tricks, our displays really have it all!

Classic Car Display
or callThe Classic Car Display and Parade is once again a major attraction with a fantastic array of cars already confirmed. This is an established event for owners and gives a real opportunity for car and bike lovers to chat to the owners and to appreciate the beauty of these vehicles close up.
If you are a proud classic car owner why not register your place!
As this event becomes more popular, we need to make sure that we have room for all the cars that want to come along (it is after all a Church Fete with cars rather than a full-on Car Show) and so we are requesting registration in advance with the intention to limit the numbers to 80.
If you do want to come along, and we expect the interest to be great after our pandemic break, please email darenjr@hotmail.co.uk or call 07780 661605 with the following to ensure your place and to make sure we have your details so we can keep you updated.
Name.
Phone number.
Model and year of registration.
It has been a very difficult time for our Churches which have had periods of being shut and without collections and fund raising for so long, so as the fete is there to help provide funds for our Church of St Mary’s Buxhall as well as that of our sister Parish Shelland and their Church dedicated to Charles, King and Martyr, we are suggesting that the Car exhibitors might like to make a voluntary donation of £5 to help make sure the fete is a great success. I hope this is OK and the changes this year help to make the event even more enjoyable
