A big thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend’s End of Summer Party such a great event.
Whether you were a cake maker, tombola-dipper, teddy-bear adopter, musician, Pot Luck food & drink donator, popcorn-cruncher or kids entertainer – or even just a raffle-ticket buying, burger-and-cake-eating Pimms drinker – everyone contributed to a fantastic afternoon to round off the summer in proper STAR style.
We’d also like to thank all of our supporters and sponsors, not least Killik & Co and CORE London who both generously acted as sponsors for the overall event and helped us underwrite our running costs for the day.
We also had incredible support from many of Chiswick’s local businesses who donated a truly mind-boggling array of raffle prizes – The Hogarth Club, Sam’s, Marmalade Jewellery, Oddonos, The George IV, Luminis, Snappy Snaps, Macken Brothers, Damsel, Headliners Comedy Club, Putt In the Park, The Chiswick Fishmonger, Fresh As A Daisy, Lemon & Limes, Klassi Hair, Aram Picture Framers , Tottles, Postmark, The Hound, Greige, Snap Dragon, Space NK, Wheelers Of Chiswick, Meraki, Wyndhams, Amorino, The Roebuck, Mayfive, The Tabard, Omnia Lifestyle, Churchill’s Pharmacy and Hair @No. 3 – so if you do have the opportunity to support them in turn that would be much appreciated too.
A special mention also must go out to Rozie, Head Baker & owner of Rozies in Devonshire Road for being the “celebrity judge” for our first ever STAR Baker Competition.
The standard of entries was incredibly high for both Adults & Kids categories, and we’re pretty sure that Rozie may well be asking Massi, Elliot, Beatrix and Georgina if they can teach her and her team their secret recipes next time they drop into her shop on Devonshire Road!
As a result of the party we will also be able to make a material donation to our local charity, W4 Youth, supporting their efforts to open a community centre in Southfield Park.
Look out for more STAR social events and community activities later in the year.
(The Teddy Bear Adoption stall – a great hit at the party!)
