It’s that time again!  The annual Summer Ball has been arranged and tickets are now on sale – on your marks, get set, go!!

I am delighted to announce that this year’s entertainment will be a slightly different arrangement.  We will start with Michael Buble, continue onto the Other Guys (Franki Valli & The Four Seasons tribute), and then conclude with a very good DJ who will play tunes to keep you dancing until the wee small hours.

To have a sneaky peak at our main entertainers, please go to the following link on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmdcQcvwWXc

As far as the menu, there is one option for each course (so no complicated menu choices!), unless someone in your party has a dietary requirement in which case you can indicate this on the ticket order form and a suitable alternative will be arranged.

Please see the attached poster for full details of menu and timings Summer Ball 2014 poster

Tickets can be purchased via the attached order form Summer Ball Order Form 2014, payment can be made in the usual way (cash or cheque in envelope with form, bank transfer with note to the Club Secretary, or card payment at the bar and receipt attached to form).  Please put your form into the club postbox marked for the attention of ‘Sara Speller – Summer Ball’.

Well done to Chris Boshier who came 1st in the Contender Eastern Area Champs BCA Travellers  this weekend at Stone.

We are currently missing a set of keys for SS8 (Olympia) and SS5 (Tornado). These may have been missing for a couple of weeks. We know these are probably still with somebody that had been completing duties, so please could you all have a search around and return then to the office or where they are normally stored.
