Dear Members
My 7th Newsletter to you, this gets me to the halfway mark in the year and the cross hairs have still not got sight of me yet.
There is a charity 24hr Darts marathon in aid of Ickle Pickles & the Young Carers will take place on 24th and 25th 7pm to 7pm. Please come & support the club members by challenging them or give them some encouragement. You can always donate on the day or via this link; -

Friday night raffles are back until at least Christmas. Raffle will be drawn as near to 9pm as possible to ensure family’s can participate.
What’s been going on
The Club’s children (our future members) were given an entertaining afternoon on a very wet Sunday by Krazy Kaighley for their Halloween party. Lots of fun & games was had. Thanks to all those that helped set up the (very Spooky) hall and for the food supplied. (Sammi, Jo, Louise & the little helpers) 😊
Sunday Lunch was another successful afternoon which would not happen without the assistance of the catering team of Steve, Lyn, Sonia, Sheils, Sam & of course the lovely waitresses Lilly & Millie.😊Well done & thanks.
Elvis went down a storm with over 110 of you attending, thank you for your ongoing support. Sean had a great time & would love to appear again next year. So Mr/Mrs/Miss President next year? What’s the answer?
The as predicted, the sold-out closed event of Kojaks once again did not disappoint. I would urge all members to book early for tickets, this the third event in a row to be sold out, NYE is likely to be a similar situation.
Early December should see the new chairs arrive to finish off the updated look of the Club, thank you to all those who gave up their time for this.
The Spindler Quiz will be back in March following a request to reinstate this event along with another request for a trip to the Army v Navy Rugby match at Twickenham, details to follow.
