As you all know we had the long awaited function of the year st on 21 August. Yes you guessed it…..The Winter Ball.
To those who came, well done you!
And to those who decided not to, you missed out on a Fantastic night of great food, a great band, a great venue and fantastic company! Although I would have liked to have more of you there it didn’t stop me from having loads of laughs and fun. Everybody got into the spirit of the evening and that’s what truly made it a fantastic (in case I haven’t already said it enough) event. So thank you to everyone who parted with their hard earned cash and made the effort to come.
I would like to say a big thank you to a few people. Without their help this event would not have been so successful.
Big Thank you to Jenny Beaumont who has been by my side the whole time listening to me blathering on about the event, coming up with great ideas and generally being bossed about.
Another big Thank you to Sharron Came who was a brilliant MC even if she was cheating in the Quiz!! (This by the way didn’t get her or her team anywhere). Sharron had us laughing from the start and only stopped when the band wanted the microphone. Sharron thanks for creating a great atmosphere of fun.
Thank you to Jo Oldfield who sourced and sorted the band. They were great and had everyone on the dance floor for a great part of the evening. I bet there are others that went home with sore feet like me.
Thank you to the committee for being so understanding about the event and supporting me through the stressful times. So if you missed it, you missed out!
OK the next thing on the social conveners’ calendar is the Photo Competition. This will be held, as last year, at the end of November so get your cameras out, make your friends pose and start clicking! There will be more information in the next newsletter and on the website soon.
Please remember to help out as this club only functions with the voluntary help of its members. If you think you could help out by giving a presentation on a Wednesday evening I would really appreciate an email on or talk to me on a Wednesday night. It can be challenging to find willing speakers for every week. Cheers and see you on Wednesday……….Donna
