Leeston Fete<br />
Saturday, 10am<br />
Presented by Ellesmere Business<br />
and Promotions. Now in its<br />
eighth year, the Leeston Fete is<br />
going to be bigger, brighter and<br />
better than previous years. This<br />
year the committee is excited<br />
to launch a new area called the<br />
Secret Garden. The date for the<br />
fete has been brought forward so<br />
the day no longer clashes with<br />
winter sports trials. A lot of stalls<br />
from previous years are returning<br />
and with the fete’s popularity<br />
growing, it has already received<br />
registrations from approximately<br />
20 first-time stalls. The event<br />
will again have the popular,<br />
dedicated children’s area but you<br />
will notice a few improvements<br />
there as well. The entertainment<br />
area has moved so people will<br />
be able to relax on the grass area<br />
under the shade of the trees.<br />
With the main street closed to<br />
traffic, there is the freedom to allow<br />
people to meander, admiring<br />
the variety of goods on display.<br />
The free entry and wide variety<br />
of food stalls means that the fete<br />
is a great family day out.<br />
