Fête rhymes with PLATE and you will HATE to miss the 3rd annual English Fête on Saturday, Sept. 10, from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Renton. Festive village fetes are fairs, a summer tradition in the UK, complete with their own style of carnival games like Splat the Rat, Smash the Crockery, Wet Sponge Throwing and more. Other staples of these annual events include live music, cake stalls, car shows, raffles and of course beer, tea and lots of traditional English foods. St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in historic old Renton is staging their very own fête for the third year in a row on Saturday, Sept. 10, from 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.! Along with all the above elements they have two unique acts performing – ‘Sound and Fury Morris Dancers’ and ‘Celt Check’ playing lively traditional old english songs. There will be a bouncy castle for the little ones and a pub for the big ones, plus an enticing silent auction (time to pick up some treasures!). All proceeds help keep St. Luke’s vibrant and supporting their work feeding the hungry, helping the homeless and partnering with Communities in Schools in Renton to meet the needs of local youth. St. Luke’s Episcopal Church is located at 99 Wells Ave. South in Renton, 98057: ]]>
