ACCEO AGM and Party
I arrived late afternoon on Friday at the Newark Showground to find, John and Anne already in place. After a welcome drink, it was time to get a bite to eat.
After a short break and stocking up with some drinks, it was back to the hall for the evening entertainment. Just a disco this year. The second half was more geared to dancing. Finally at 11.45 it was all over and time to go back to our vans for a well earned rest.
Saturday morning dawned dry and sunny. After morning coffee, John and Anne took me in to Newark for some supplies, plus buying the club Raffle Prize for the event A quick bite of lunch, then we all piled in for the AGM and open forum (the official reason for being here). After tea we were soon back in the hall. This year it was a barn dance and the floor was heaving Everyone seemed to be having a great time and all too soon it was 11.30 and it was all over.
Sunday and another bright day. Coffee had been brought forward to 10.30 to give more time for the mega raffle (115 prizes). John, Anne and myself sat patiently waiting, and we took two prizes each. It was the usual very enjoyable weekend, with superb entertainment and well worth the cost.
Thanks to the Eldiss Club who ran the weekend. It has been announced for Uttoxeter Racecoursenext year so lets make an effort to have a good turn out and a great time.
