Opportunities and attractions at Family Fun Day and Fête
Residents and management of Thornhill Manor are beavering away getting organ-
ised for the village’s annual fête on Saturday 7 October. There will be loads of fun
stuff, tons of food and all kinds of interesting stalls to attract attention.
Assistant manager, Jackie Scott, says that there is still space available for outside
stall holders to hawk their wares at this popular event. “What we are looking for
are entrepreneurs who want to sell their home-made and hand-crafted produce –
from jewellery to knitwear and just about everything in between,” she says. This
craft-orientated event has become a firm Modderfontein favourite over the years
and features home-made wholesome cakes, tarts and biscuits, jams, pickles and
preserves which are always firm favourites.
For foodies, national dishes add a touch of spice with South African boerewors,
American hamburgers, German bockwurst with potato salad and bacon and egg
rolls catering for all tastes. Tea and beer gardens are there to wet the whistle
while the tried and trusted white elephant stall will offer bargains galore. For
more information, or to book a stall, call Jackie or Esmé on 011-608-2480.
