CHRISTMAS CELEBRATIONS.

Despite the cold and dreary weather there was plenty of festive cheer in Alford on Friday 7th December. Santa Claus handed out gifts to the many children who visited  him in his grotto at the Corn Exchange while outside St Wilfrids Church Choir and Alford primary school children sang by the Christmas Tree in the Market Place. There were burgers and hotdogs supplied by the Boys Brigade stall who with other stall holders braved the cold. Earthbound misfits entertained the people who flowed through the Market Place between the Corn Exchange and the Manor House. The evening was finished off with a Christmas Concert which started with a rousing performance by the combined JSTC and Primary School Samba Band and featured choirs and solo artists from all three of Alford's schools
