150 Years of Trinity Methodist Church in 2010 – one of the events planned is to hold a Flower festival during the weekend of 12 – 13 June 2010.We would like to use as many photographs as possible of events which have taken place e.g. Garden Parties, Sunday School Queens, Musical Eisteddfods etc.. If you have any photographs are prepared to loan them please hand them to Wendy in a sealed envelope with name / address and telephone number on each photo. Although this event is over a year away , time does fly and as soon as we begin to receive photographs we will have an idea of space /categories etc. Anyone who was married at Trinity and still has the wedding dress and is prepared to loan it, we would also be very interested in including these into the exhibition.
