We
counted over 2,000 adults through the doors over the
weekend and estimate that nearly 4,500 people saw
the festival this year, when children and school
visits were included.
New
for this year were cribs made by local children's
groups, including nurseries, Cubs Brownies, church
groups and schools:

Theydon Garnon Children's
Church

one of the cribs from
Coopersale Hall School
The
money this year is to be split between two causes:
The Box - a volunteer-run centre on the High
Street which provides a place for young people to
meet, socialise, do homework, use computers or see
a counsellor. The Box also provides an alternative education for a number
of young people.

The Box tree
was highly commended
Hold on
to your Hats
St
John's Church which continues to improve
access to church, maintain the building and pay its
way in the Diocese. |
