May I take this opportunity, as the 2013 chair of the 28th Otley Victorian Fayre, to publicly thank the many people without whom we would not be able to put on such a large event? Many extra stewards come on board on the actual day of the fayre. I especially want to thank my dedicated small team of volunteers who put in many months of hard work leading up to the annual event.
Our cafes, pubs and shops really entered into the spirit of the fayre and I have already heard from people who have never been to Otley before who intend to come back.
I don’t intend to make an issue of the poor weather because it definitely made no difference to the many thousands of people attending. Thank you. It makes the many months of hard work worthwhile.
Steph Lee, chairman, 2013 Victorian Fayre
