The 150th anniversary of the wonderful little chapel at Hartoft was celebrated on Sunday 30 August with a musical tea. Forty four people from all over the dale attended and £315 was raised which will go towards replacing one or more of the chapel windows.
Lynda would like too thanks all who came and supported the chapel restoration fund for their ‘fantastic generosity’.
A letter was received this morning from the Yorkshire Air Ambulance regarding the carols around the tree event on 21 December:
“Dear Friends,
On behalf of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity we would like to thank you for your generous donation of £76 given by carol singing around the tree in Rosedale Abbey.
It is the goodwill, sponsorship and charitable donations that keep this vital service flying and therefore we are extremely grateful for your support – without the generosity of people such as your selves we would be unable to continue this valuable work.
Once again our warmest thanks and appreciation to you.
Your sincerely,
Tracey Bull
Administrator
Yorkshire Air Ambulance”
Well done again to everyone who attended and remember to bring all your friends and family to make next year’s event even bigger and better.
A good crowd of around forty people and at least eight dogs from Rosedale and Hartoft gathered around the village Christmas Tree on Saturday evening, 21 December, to enjoy mulled cider and mince pies and sing carols lustily until the rain cut short the festivities!
A very generous crowd donated £76 to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Thanks to Diane Crawford for arranging the excellent musical accompaniment and to Linda Chambers for the mulled cider and mince pies. Let’s make it an even bigger event next year. Meantime, a very Happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year to all our readers in Rosedale, Hartoft and beyond!
