Chester Merchants Press Release

 Greetings!
Monday's
Remembrance Day ceremony was a corker and the weather cooperated. The
parade square was packed, there was a "fly by" by an old fighter plane
and the band played on. It was epic.
It's Gingerbread time again !
The Festival kicks off in just over 2 weeks. There are several
divisions for the gingerbread house entries and each winning entry will
win a $150 prize thanks to our generous sponsors. Blow the cobwebs out
of the oven and get busy. |
