CARLBY CELEBRATED…..The Parish Council would like to say a big thank you to all who organised, helped and attended each of the Platinum Jubilee Weekend events. The events were so well attended and so very much enjoyed by all. There was a lot of free bubbly and tea & coffee drunk, and a lot of cake eaten.
We kicked off on the Thursday with a gathering on The Green to raise a glass to The Queen, we had an exhibition with flowers on display in the Church, a Pub Quiz in the Village Hall, an afternoon Garden Party, a Thanksgiving Service, and a Pic-nic inside the Village Hall due to the weather to wrap up the weekend’s events with commemorative mugs handed out to the children and a prize for the Treasure Hunt awarded.
