HARVEST SUPPER
October 2011
St Andrew's Church hosted their annual Harvest Supper in The Village Hall on Friday 7th October 2011.
Around 84 people attended and the evening began with a rousing rendition of the traditional harvest hymn 'We plough the fields and scatter'.
A wonderful spread of food was provided by people in the village. The generosity of people living in Helions Bumpstead is amazing!
Everyone enjoyed trying to identify photographs of 'Old Helions Bumpstead', the weight of a very large marrow was correctly guessed by Beryl Baker and each table puzzled over this year's Harvest Quiz. (This is available on the web site for others to try - you can download it here. The answers are available on request).
The evening raised over £500. Half will be sent to the family of 26 orphans of the 2004 tsunami that we support in India and the remaining monies will help finance provision of memorial plaques in the Remembrance Garden.
