Grand Christmas Draw

Tickets are now available for this year’s Grand Christmas Draw and we have increased the first prize to a whopping £200.
Ticket iconTo reduce the workload and keep our costs down tickets this year are £1 (so a book of 5 is £5).
This is a good opportunity for every member to raise funds for the club and help keep subscription costs low. Remember, the club needs about £5000 a year to make ends meet so please try very hard to sell tickets to friends, family, neighbours and colleagues as well as buying some yourself. All ticket stubs and money to be returned to Rowena by Sunday 4th December please.

Arndale "Win a Car" Draw - 14th Dec

Photo at last year's "Win a Car"Our day for selling the “Win a Car” draw tickets at Eastbourne Arndale Centre is Wednesday 14th December from 9 am to 5 pm.
Last year we raised £700 for our club at this event and had great fun.
To have a successful day we need a minimum of four people at all times. Can you spare a couple of hours to help us sell tickets and promote our club? Rowena will be organising a rota so please volunteer.

Thank you Jill and Patrick for again hosting a fun barbeque this summer.

Everyone enjoyed the event on Saturday 27th August which raised £210 for club funds.

The food was delicious and the sun shone for a least most of the time. Thanks also to those club members who helped keep costs down by providing salads and desserts.

Masons Presentation

Following their generous donation of £1,000 for repairs to our hoist, members of the Royal Connaught Lodge enjoyed a visit to the club in July to see the hoist and club in action.

Club's 40th Anniversary

Next year, 2012, will be the fortieth anniversary of the founding of our club and a special anniversary party is being planned for Saturday 21st July.

More details of this will be in future newsletters.
