Those attending the Dickens Festival most certainly would have enjoyed going back to Victorian times at the tea room at the United Church, hosted by the UCW.
This year, Lynn Brady was the Chairperson and each year volunteers prepare baking, pudding and a whopping thousand biscuits!
This stylish attraction featured well-dressed gentlemen and ladies from the Victorian Age and observers saw many of the volunteers and patrons dressed eloquently for the occasion, with hats and bonnets available to wear, while sipping on a cup of tea and enjoying a dainty.
Audrey Young and Lois Paul greeted the tea party goers. The event also featured a baking and craft sale.
Visitors Bill and Marie Abbot had this to say when asked, “What was the highlight of the festival?”
“The high tea was very lovely. It was fun shopping at King’s. We want to get a horse ride and check out the parade.” Bill and Marie are from Regina and arrived by bus. This was their first time attending Dickens Village Festival.
