A huge thank you to everyone who attended the Open day on Saturday, around 200 visitors came to the event which was combined with a huge sale of Books, DVDs and CD
s. The ladies in the kitchen were kept busy all day, selling homemade soup, quiche, cakes and of course bacon and sausage sandwiches. Approximately £600 was raised for Hall funds.
We were also delighted to see the family and friends of our dear friend Joan Phillip who sadly passed away a few months ago. Joan was a dedicated ,member of Gargrave Village Hall Management Committee for over forty years. Her son, John and daughter Susan unveiled a plaque in memory of their Mum which is placed on the bench at the front of the Hall where Joan often sat with her friends and neighbours. The gallery photograph to the left shows Joan`s son and daughter and her great friend Jennifer who was also a long standing committee member. Also present at the un-veiling was the Village Hall President Peter Perls who had travelled all the way from Cheshire for the occasion.
