Afternoon tea & jazz

Around 100 people attended our very festive Afternoon Tea in November.

ACFAA volunteers laid out and decorated 17 tables, then set about prepping the sandwiches, homemade quiches and cakes, mince pies and cream teas, all served on beautiful vintage plates.

Guests were welcomed with a complimentary glass of bubbly, and settled in for the afternoon, accompanied by music from the melodic Eymet Quartette Jazzique.

Thanks to generous donations by various businesses in the area, a raffle offered a wide range of prizes, with proceeds going to the Secours Populaire, a local charity which supports people in need in their immediate areas. At time of writing, more than 500euros was raised.

The next day, ACFAA was present at Eymet’s annual Fête de Ste Catherine celebrations, with the ‘Crazy Stompers’ performing a mix of line dances for all abilities, and our Craft and Atelier groups offering hand-crafted items for sale.
