Maidenhead town center was lit up by the Norden Farm with a parade of colourful lanterns. To support the parade, out came seven GoodGymmers on this bitterly cold evening.
Jen, Georgeta, Sheila, Gillian, Nicola, Kelley and Kanika joined in the fixing up of the light sticks to the beautiful lanterns crafted by children from various schools. With a background of drums and dancing, the evening started to light up with animal shaped lanterns in all the colours of the rainbow.
As the parade set off, Nicola and Kanika campaigned the watchers for donations, by cash and card. Kelley grabbed a lantern and joined the parade, while Jen, Georgeta, Gillian and Sheila brought up the rear with large lanterns of butterfly and Swan.
A delightful hour passed as the parade made it's slow, bright and loud way along the town center. A beautiful evening that warmed our hearts even as our bodies got cold.
