Raising the Roof Country Fair Part 2: The Organ Strikes Back!
Charity Show and Classic Vehicle Gathering.
All proceeds going to the upkeep of the parish church, St. Mary the Virgin
to raise funds to repair the organ that last year's lead roof thefts caused.
Hot on the heels of the success of the 2010 event, which raised a massive £3,770.68 to complete repairs to the roof at the parish church and install security lighting to make sure we don't lose the lead again, we will be doing it all again. This time the event, which will be held on Saturday 2nd July 2011, is to raise funds to repair the organ that was repeatedly soaked whilst we carried out the re-roofing works.
There are new attractions and events this year including live animal displays, a 'Battle of the Bands', a fun dog show and an arts and crafts fair, to improve an already good event. Most importantly, the winners of the Pride of Woodford Classic Vehicle 2010 award will return with their 1947 Alvis Mulliner Saloon to defend their crown (seen right).
Amongst the vehicles on display last year were a 1933 Austin 10/4, a brace of Ferraris, a Lotus Cortina Mk 1 and a unique trike that resembled the Bat Mobile. Worthy of note were a rarely seen Hilman Minx Californian, a Mk 1 Escort Mexico, a Shelby GT350 and, last but by no means least, the cars of the Kilsby MG Owners Club, which made a fantastic display.
