Welcome

Hi everyone, and thanks for coming on what promises to be a busy night. Tonight we have the Irish Guards singers to entertain us once again. They always give us a fantastic night so please give them your support.

 

 

Last Meeting

Last month, Graham Deane came to entertain us, and once again he put on a fabulous show for us. We look forward to inviting him back next year.

Turkey and Tinsel

Teresa will be giving out luggage tags tonight. The coach leaves the stadium at 09.15, and Runcorn Bus Station at 09.30, on Friday 22^nd PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, remember to bring your medications!!!  We intend to call in at the Tweedmills for a couple of hours on the way down, as our rooms won’t be available until 2pm.

Christmas Draw Tickets

I hope you have all sold the draw tickets allocated to you last month, and have the stubs and money with you. If not, then please hand them or deliver them to any committee member BEFORE the party. Alternatively, you can post them to me at:

3 Holborn Court,

Widnes,

WA8 9UG

IF POSTING, PLEASE DO NOT ENCLOSE CASH: CHEQUES ONLY

 

Christmas Party

Tickets for our Christmas party are on sale tonight, priced at £10.00 a head. Admission will be by ticket only. As always, it will be a great night, with good food and entertainment, in the company of friends. We urge as many people as possible to support the party, by bringing friends and family along. It is taking place on Wednesday 11th of December. Meeting at 7.30pm for an 8pm start, we are hoping to finish at 11pm.

Hampers

Once again, we will be accepting food and drink items for our Christmas hampers tonight. These will be gifted to less fortunate members of our community, to make a difference to their Christmas. If you wish to contribute, but haven’t brought your donation tonight, ring any committee member asap, and they will arrange collection.

Afternoon Club

I believe the memory boxes which Halton Libraries brought in last month was a lot of fun, and thought provoking, and worth inviting back in the future. Next week, Sandra and Teresa have bought some craft materials, and you will have a chance to show off your artistic skills. As usual, free tea and cake/biscuits are on offer. Next months’ meeting is a free Christmas buffet at the Grangeway Community Centre. To secure your place we ask for £5 a head which will be refunded when you arrive. Please give your name and money to Dianne, so we can order sufficient food from the caterers

Mayors Charity

The Mayor is holding a Christmas Bingo night here at the stadium on Wednesday 27^th November at 7.30pm. Admission is 50p, and from experience, it is very well supported. There are some great prizes to be won and children are welcome to attend. The next fundraising event is on Saturday 7^th December, here at the stadium, and is a Christmas Party night. There is a 3-course meal on offer, for the princely sum of £10. Tickets are selling out fast, so if you want to join us, give me your name tonight, as the Mayor needs to know the numbers by Friday.

Panto

The HEARTS Theatre group have donated 10 tickets for their panto “Mother Goose”, which is to be performed at Upton Community Centre on Wednesday 4^th December. We would like them to go mainly to children with an accompanying adult. Put your name on a slip and we will have a draw later for them.

Panto 2

The Brindley have donated 3 tickets to the club via the Mayors Charity. These retail at £24 for an adult and £18 for children. Tonight we are having an auction for them with a reserve of £20 for the 3. The panto is Snow White, and the tickets are for Saturday 14^th December. Get your purses out ladies.
