What a brilliant start to our Second Christmas Tree Festival with the official opening by the Town Mayor and her Consort and the Town Crier.

The church and adjoining rooms looked splendid with trees demonstrating a remarkable degree of creativity and imagination.

The gala concert by the Driffield Male Voice Choir was greatly appreciated as were all the musical contributions throughout the first weekend.

And throughout it all the ladies and gentlemen of the Church Caf were busy serving refreshments and the ladies of Marie Curie running their tombola.

And so to our final weekend and this is the programme so please give it your full support.
