Reepham Lions are planning to hold Reepham’s second Christmas Tree Festival from Friday 2 December to Sunday 4 December 2022.
Last year’s inaugural Festival was attended by large numbers of visitors, especially during the Festival of Light. It was planned to be a community event rather than a fundraiser but the Lions were delighted that donations during the festival provided a surplus of around £1,000 which was shared between Reepham Lions and St Mary’s Church.
The 2022 Festival will follow the same lines as last year, with around 22 trees in the Church, each sponsored by businesses, community groups or individuals. Sponsorship is just £40 per tree. Lights and tree stands will be provided by the Lions, but sponsors are asked to decorate their tree – or invite another group to decorate it for them.
The Festival will again be run as a community event with no charge for attendance but there will be collection buckets for donations throughout the event. Any surplus money raised will again be shared between Reepham Lions and St Mary’s Church.
