Large crowds at Scuttlebrook Wake in Chipping Campden
WHEN it comes to having a street party mixed in with a traditional festival of fun, look no further than Scuttlebrook Wake in Chipping Campden which was blessed with glorious spring sunshine last Saturday.
The historic celebration in the Cotswolds gives everyone involved a chance to share the abundant community spirit in the town and enjoy the forthcoming arrival of summer.
There was fancy dress and carnival floats, with prizes up for grabs, the crowning of the new Scuttlebrook Queen, Campden Morris Dancers, Scuttlefest, which saw family friendly live music outside the Lygon Arms, window displays in homes and businesses and a colourful fairground which included four large rides alongside stalls and attractions.
Paddy Sexton chair of Scuttlebrook Wake said: “It went incredibly well. We were back in strength and the town square was full and busy. The theme this year was thankyou to our healthcare and emergency services. This whole event is run by volunteers so any money we do raise goes back into staging Scuttlebrook and we are very grateful to our sponsors. Great music, great crowds and a great occasion.”
