Sunday 21st of August was one of our hottest, but that didn't deter SDM members and friends from coming to the Captain's Garden Féte.
Ages ranged from 8 into the 80s, but everyone became children, playing good old fashioned games and challenges.
The garden rang with laughter, which was a good indication of people having fun. Of course, it may have been due to Tweedy's BBQ food being accompanied by drinks from Richard Emrich's "Just the Ticket" refreshment bar!
Thank you to everyone who gave up many hours in the planning, assisted on the day, baked all those fabulous cakes and biscuits and to everyone who came along.
With a couple of pledges on their way, the total figure raised on the day for the Algarve Oncology Association is €804.13 - success all round!
