Dare to be silly!

Costume fitting tonight ( Monday, July 7th) for anyone who would like to wear a full costume for the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party!

You don’t need to be a “Friend of Chagford Library”, just be happy to support the cause and enjoy looking a bit silly on the day! All ages welcome, costumes for both children and adults are available.

Address for costume fitting: Nonesuch Cottage, 13 Lower Street. (Use the entrance down the alley to the right of the cottage, rather than the front door. There will be a sign.)

Time: 6 to 8 pm

Come and join the fun!

The Mad Hatter’s Tea Party is this Saturday, July 12th, 2 – 4, at Jubilee Hall and the Library. More info here.

A “Mad Hatters Tea Party” update

We’re still looking for:

* cakes for the Mad Hatter Tea…because you can never have too much cake! (The cakes don’t have to be Alice-themed, like this one…but oh my, isn’t it amazing?)

* people (children and adults) who are willing to wear Alice costumes on the day, kindly lent to us by the Chagford Pantomime and other local thespians.

* any Alice-in-Wonderland-type props you might have that we can borrow for decorating the hall.

If you can contribute in any of these ways, please contact Friends and we’ll send your message on to the right contact person.

Otherwise you can contribute by coming to the party — and bringing your family, friends, and neighbors too!
