Hatch Warren WI
 |
In June we celebrated our 18th Birthday Party with the help of some "male" entertainment from the Hook Eagle Morris men! Twelve dancers and nine musicians made up the troupe who traditionally wear top hat and tails. Their hats being decorated with pheasant feathers and a silver fox tail. They have blackened faces and the clashing of sticks is also part of their traditional dancing. Members from other North Hants WI groups were invited and everyone had an opportunity to join in the dancing at the end. Our theme was a "Strawberry Fayre" and the delicious food including tiers of cupcakes, strawberry scones and a chocolate birthday cake was provided by our members. It was one of the few warm evenings this summer and everyone enjoyed wearing something summery with a pink or red theme. |
