The Odd Object Competition

Families have spent 2 weeks this August spotting odd objects up and down Totnes High Street organised by Totnes Carnival,  this year’s old tradition always proves popular and helps to raise funds for the carnival committee

A total of £363 through the businesses donations and selling of entrance forms was raised this year which will be going towards the Lantern workshops in November and the procession in December

The prizes were presented by the Mayor of Totnes Cllr Emily Price at our Mad Hatter’s Tea Party which was held on Sunday at Totnes St John’s primary school

The First prize went to Maishe, Flo and Zebedee Gillmore of Totnes (Pictured above)

The Second prize to Rupert Jacob of Totnes

and the Third prize Amelie and Sylvan Licinio of Ipplepen

The winning business voted for by the entrants was Boyce’s Way Pet Food shop for their jar of Marmite (Surely a dog would eat Marmite?- ed)

Huge thanks to the businesses once again for being on board. We couldn’t do it without them especially Country Cheeses of Tavistock Topsham and Totnes and Castle Books Totnes for selling the forms and having a postbox for the returning of the forms which was new for this year

Congratulations everyone we look forward to seeing you all at our Lantern making workshops and procession
