IT WAS a full-house at Callington Town Hall for the 2012 Oompah Evening organised by Callington Twinning Association. 

With many guests sporting a variety of Tyrolean hats, shorts and braces, the atmosphere was set for a lively visit to the Callington Oktoberfest.

Music was provided by the Callington Town Band, also suitably dressed for the occasion, and Mike Garvin on accordion — but the star of the show was Lea Jung from Stuttgart dressed in an authentic dirndl.

Lea is spending the year in Callington Community College where she is working as a community service volunteer. With an excellent German-themed meal and entertainment which included a traditional Schuhplattler competition, a thoroughly good time was had by all.
