WHRF Update & Village Witchy Scarecrow Competition

Dear all

Thank you to everyone who came to the village forum coffee morning in September. Around 40 people came, bringing lots of comments and ideas: we will review and report on these at the AGM in December.

Thanks to some amazing village bakers and a raffle the event raised over £180 for the Church Flowers Fund.

One of the popular ideas put forward was a village ‘witchy scarecrow’ competition and trail for Halloween.

We’ve decided to go for it and try this out this year, and thanks to support from Wookey Hole Caves, Wookey Hole Inn and Souldough pizzas there are some great prizes on offer for winning scarecrows:

1st Mendip View Lodge weekend

2nd Dinner for two at the Wookey Hole Inn

3rd Souldough Pizza family voucher

We’re a bit later than planned publicising but we do hope you and your neighbours will join in and get creative with making your own witchy scarecrow!

How to take part:

Prizes will be awarded 6-7pm Mon 30th October at The Mill Restaurant, Wookey Hole Caves (formerly Captain Jack’s).
