LEWANNICK Community Events Committee has expressed its thanks to the record breaking number that attended last week’s May Day celebrations, with proceeds to village hall stage refurbishment.

There were craft and food marquees, a grand raffle, barbecue, teas, stalls and activities for all ages, as well as Maypole dancing and Maymaid parade.

The Archer Arms hosted live music in the evening.

The committee also expressed its thanks to stall holders, raffle prize donators and anyone that bought tickets, Horizon Home Improvements for generous sponsorship, and Tesco for donating the hotdog rolls.

A committee spokesperson said: “We’re delighted to announce that we raised the fantastic sum of £2,000! This will go a long way towards the refurbishment of the stage. You’re all awesome!”
