Hello Members
This is my first communication with you and I want to give you a quick peak of the journey for the club this year. The club is going from strength to strength and I wish to continue on that theme. So watch out for all the old favourites and some new events this year.
28th May. This Sunday we have an up and coming vocalist from the IOW called Marley Blandford playing at the club. He has got great reviews and is known locally as a terrific performer. This is a FREE EVENT...can you please put Names in the book . It's gonna be a hot one so I'll see about burgers being available.
Footie
England will be playing our friends from the north (Scotland) on Saturday 10th June, hopefully the wall will be opened to welcome those guests. 17:00
England will also face our allies across the channel on the 13th June (France). We hope that the Nelson & Wellington spirit will prevail and we are victors again. 20:00
Father's Day Sunday 18th will be a Roastie and Hot Bap affair in the afternoon with a vocalist set to entertain you along with clips on great British sporting achievements if Scotland beat us on the Sat I may play that one again but don't hold your breath. £6 members £8 guests, names in the book please.
There will be some Serious Jockin “no G” on the 24th June dancing the night away to "Smashie & Nicey" our resident DJ's. There will be Charlie Chilli on offer and a free drink available £5 members £7 guests. Tickets now available at the bar, the new president would like to see as many members as possible attend both old & new and all the temporary members.
The club will continue on its refurbishment programme timeline to improve facilities in the club, please keep your ideas coming in as this will shape the priorities we as a committee face.
Can I remind all members that despite the recent problems with door access.The policy is to have the club entrance locked for security purposes. You are reminded to have your membership card with you and refrain from making comments to bar staff. Any concerns should be directed to the committee. Remember the suggestion box is the best method of communicating with the committee as memories on a busy evening can be fuzzy in the morning.
Please help out those selling raffle tickets on Friday nights by approaching them. They are out on a social occasion too. We will sweep the club for those late comer's in any case (we know who you are!), so don't panic everyone will get tickets who wants them.
Bar staff would greatly appreciate empty glasses being returned to the Bar. Anna and the team are doing a fantastic job so lets help them help us!
I will be holding a new members and temporary members night in the near future to welcome those and for established members to make new friends.
Poker night dates will be posted soon, with the old favourites of "Lesley's" Bingo nights on the first Monday on the Month. September's bingo will be 2nd Monday (11th) due to an important international taking place and January's session moved to the 8th January as New Years Day is a bit too soon after New Years celebrations.
15th July Summer Fete raffle tickets are now on sale - please come into club and purchase tickets, there are lots of prizes on offer. Don't forget all you doggy owners that the predaceous rosette for winners of classes is up for grabs.
Goodwood races is on 4th Aug this year at a cost of £31. A deposit of £15 is required on booking. The book opens for this next Monday 29th May.
Your support throughout the year is needed, please come and have a chat with me at any time, although late evening may not be best if you want me to remember anything really important. I'm looking forward to making new friends and cementing the ones I have already made in this great club of ours
Thanks
