FETE: Hook Village Fete is in just a couple of weeks, on Saturday, May 22, in Elizabeth Hall.

If all goes well, this could be one of the last village fetes to be held in the existing hall, as exciting plans are under way to construct a new one.

There is a lot to do on the day to keep everything running smoothly during the fete.

If you can spare an hour or so to help, contact Kate on 762982.

There are still some spaces left for stalls for local groups or commercial organisations. Call Sharon on 764067 for more information.
