Northstowe's monthly community get-together -- Wing Wednesday -- was transformed into a festive treat last night.

After school crafts,  attracted many families of school age children to decorate cards, tree ornaments, angels, and lanterns. Gingerbread decorating was the icing on it all!  

Later, we reset The Wing with a more sophisticated setup, as a jazz band  set the tone for a chilled evening. More complicated crafts and a Christmas jigsaw added to the evening, as did an amazing spread of food and drink.

The pinnacle of it all was the first public performance of the Northstowe Community Choir. There were even a few glistening eyes at the sheer beauty and wonder of it all. 

But, perhaps most importantly, was how Northstowe residents, the social committee, our community development office, and the two local churches partnered to bring it all together. This is how communities are formed!
