A Rootin’ Tootin’ Day of Fun, Food, and Festivities
A Day to Remember!
Despite the grey clouds looming overhead, Old Sarum Manor’s country western-themed summer party was anything but dull! The tantalising smell of BBQ wafted through the air, enticing residents, families, and staff alike to gather and make unforgettable memories. This vibrant gathering kicked up the dust and brought a spark of joy—even when the weather tried to play spoilsport!
Stalls Galore and Raffle Excitement!
Making your way inside, attendees were greeted by an array of stalls lining the reception area—each brimming with excitement. Guests enjoyed a refreshing glass of wine or water while taking part in cheeky competitions including “Guess the Name of the Scarecrow” and “How Many Jelly Beans Are in the Jar?” The excitement escalated with thrilling raffle prizes and tombola treats, while the nail-biting guess-the-weight-of-the-cake contest had everyone eagerly waiting for the big reveal!
Activities for All Ages!
The fun didn’t stop there! Guests stomped their boots to the lively tunes of Cheeko’s Western singing and hit the dance floor for a communal line dance in the dining room. Families thrived in the garden room, participating in games galore, while children giggled with glee at face painting stations. With skittles and laughter aplenty, every moment was a testament to the joy of community spirit at Old Sarum Manor!
