This year's teddy was kindly donated by Pam Watson to be raffled off for the theater. A board of names was drawn up and people had to pick out a name for £1. The winner was drawn from a Santa hat at the Knaresborough Cricket Club on December 20th. The winner was a Ian Sleight (pictured with the bear at the Bridge Inn at Walshford) who entered the week before. The bear's name was Frank. Ian kindly gave the bear to a local baby, Henry Bell, for Christmas and he loves it! All the money raised will go towards the lighting fund for the theater. Thank you to all who took part.
