The Spilsby Lions organised the Cracker Day which proved very popular with both residents and visitors. The schedule through out the day involved craft stalls, charity stalls, Santa's Grotto, displays from the Alford Morris Dancers and the Fire Service; music provided by the Mareham le Fen Silver Band. Competitions were for the best fancy dress and best dressed shop window which was won by Pedigree Corner.

In the Methodist Schoolroom there were stalls selling woodcrafts, knitted products, toys and plants. Tea, coffee and cakes were also served. Spilsby Theatre had craft stalls and St. James Church showed an exhibition of historic photographs.
