There were checked shirts, double denim, and cowboy hats ranging in colour from classic to fluffy white, with one all the way from Texas! What an effort everyone made to bring our 2022 Barn Dance to life. The evening was a lively, loud, laughter-filled success and with proceeds from ticket sales, plus the bar and the raffle, we raised a wonderful £1400! We were supported by Long Man and Gun breweries, who each donated barrels of beer; and from J. Heath & Sons who supplied the meat for the BBQ. We thank our hosts at Carters Corner Farm and everyone who came, got into the spirit, and made the evening such a wonderful one.
