24th July 2021 Grand Opening West Tarring
Saturday 24th July was the West Tarring Store Grand Opening, overseen by Worthing's Town Crier Bob Symtherman, he rang his bell and gave it the full "Oyez" (pronounced Oh Yay!) along the main drive on site to let the allotmenteers who wern't already at the store know that their presence was requested!. Thanks Bob, you did a fantastic Job. The weather held out, the tea & cake went down very well, and a good day was had by all.
Congratulations to John Daly on winning the first prize in the raffle, he chose the Silver Wheelbarrow and also to all our runners up.
A very big thank you to all that were involved and donated to making this day happen, especially the cake makers!
Above is a selection of photos from the day. We will create an album of all the photos on our facebook group in the coming week.
Thanks again - WAGA
