Corsley Fayre

About

We had some lovely feedback from last year's Fayre so we're excited to put it on again this year! There are stacks of things to do and see – children's games, fun inflatables, donkey rides, and a mini petting farm – we've got some super furry friends to delight the children. The Frome Dragon will be attending, as will Tyson and his rescued snakes – both are probably as scary as they sound! Tony will be hosting have-a-go archery – and that's for mums and dads too.
For all you dog lovers, there's a fun dog show – go on, pamper your pooch and see if you can win a rosette – 'Best Six Legs' is for both of you, and there's a brand new class this year 'Best Young Handler (under 10 years of age)'. For the more energetic dogs, there's a scurry too – it's proper doggy fun so do pop along and join in!
Corsley Tennis Club will be hosting a mini have-a-go, so if your children or grandchildren have thought about taking up tennis but weren't quite sure if it's for them, the club would be so pleased to get some kids involved.
If all this sounds far too energetic, you could either prop up the Cricket Club bar or sample the delights of the Fuzzy Duck gin bar (they're selling off-sales too) and park yourself on a bale and watch the Fayre unfold. The ladies in the WI Tea Tent would be only too delighted to serve up a cup of tea or coffee and a delicious slice of cake. Luke will be firing up his stonking barbecue again this year, or for a lighter snack, give Clare's Posh Crepes a go – they're really scrummy. Jake's offering healthy salads (vegan friendly) and fresh juices and Tony will be serving up some cooling ice creams. So much choice!
In the Horticulture and Crafts tent, we'll have Malcolm demonstrating pottery (and you can have a go too!), the Bonsai Club and the Cactus and Succulent Club will be showcasing some of their magnificent specimens – there's so much variety and they'd be delighted to have a chat about their fascinating hobbies. The ladies from Frome Weavers will be bringing some looms for you to have a go – they were jolly popular last year!
The Horticulture and Crafts competition is sure to be a wow! Come and see what all our exhibitors have been up to in the garden, craft room, kitchen and workshop. We've some new classes this year and we'd love to see YOUR exhibits – there's over 100 classes, so there's something for everyone to have a go at! If you've never exhibited before, now's the time to get thinking about what you could show us; we have proper judges for Vegetables & Fruit and Flowers & Plants, Homecraft (cooking and baking) and Photography. All the other classes are judged by the public using tokens – they're all fun competitions so it would be fantastic if you'd join in – you're in with a chance of a certificate to prove you're the cream of the crop! You can enter online at www.corsleyfayre.org.uk - all classes are FREE to enter.
To top it all off, we'll have an Auction of Promises with some cracking lots to bid on. Our raffle is stuffed with goodies too – more info coming soon on our social media channels.
There's far too much going on to list it all here, so do come along and see what else is on offer – you're sure to have a wheeze with all our attractions!
