Despite being soaked through on Sunday and Monday while watching and helping the Brownies to sell programmes, it was a fabulous weekend event and brought in many people from far and wide. One couple I spoke to were from America! And I can tell you that the young people of Mitcheldean - Brownies, Guides, Cub Scouts and the newly formed Explorers and soon to be formed Guiding Senior Section, were really amazed and so grateful for the fantastic donation we received (nearly £1,500) towards our hut fund. We now have almost £10,000 towards the £30,000 that we need. Thank you all soooooo much and we hope you'll being running the event again next year. Hey, Carrie,

An immense amount of work obviously went into it and I will definitely make the journey next year to attend. The whole event was fantastic, thoroughly interesting and amazing.

We came up from Kent especially for the festival and enjoyed visiting Harts Barn and learning abouth the history of the place. We are looking forward to visiting for next year's festival. Congratulations to Carrie on all her hard work! Yes,I agree, the work was of very high standard.I did feel sorry for all the stonemasons having to work in all that rain though!

When I talked to the guest masons they really were pleased with how the whole event had gone. The Harts Barn looked fabulous and the whole place had a real buzz about it, even with the weather turning bad. I do agree some of those carvings were an absolute steal for prices they eventually went for. Those bidders really got themselves a bargain or two! I do however have to send a little apology to the puppy that was eyeing up my pork roll from the hog roast. Cute can only get you so far and that roll was worth the guilt! :D Can't wait to come to next year's festival. Hope the weather's better though. I’m really glad this went well for you Carrie.
