News Roundup
Members 60+ Summer Party
This was held in the
afternoon on Thursday 3rd June. The numbers were down
slightly due to regular attendee’s ill health or the ill health
of their partners, we wish them a speedy recovery and look
forward to seeing them back in the club.
The party ended with
a round of thanks to all of those involved with the running of
it and a demand to know the date of the Christmas party. Watch
this space!
Key to a
Fortune
The game is played on Friday and Saturday evenings and the prize for opening
the box rises each week and the keys reduce by one until it is
won. Tickets cost £1 each and you can buy as many as you wish.
Players must be 18 yrs or over.
Bat and
Trap
The game played
between the clubs two premises, Elm Grove and Lewes Road, has a
long history of being played on Good Friday that appears to be
coming to an end. It will be a sad day if we let these Sussex
traditions die out. The Bat and Ball public house at the east
end of Oxford street shows the game being played on it’s sign.
We all know that working times have changed but if you have any
ideas on how to save this annual game please talk to a committee
member about it.
Food Bar
Barbara has cut back on the
time she works and no longer runs the canteen, however she is still active in the club as
a committee member. Her outside catering will continue
and she is always willing to quote for your function. |

Wednesday Bingo
The number of people
attending Wednesday bingo has been dropping over the last few
months and the committee would like your suggestions on how to
increase support for it. If you stopped coming
for whatever reason or still turn up but would like to see
changes this is your chance to have your say. Write down your
comments and suggestions and give them to any committee member.
Membership Renewals
Membership Renewals have now finished, if you haven't
renewed yours, you can no longer use the club.
Function Room
The upstairs bar at Lewes Road is available for members to hire for
private functions.
The office is taking bookings for 2010 and the diary is filling up
quickly, so if you want a particular date get your booking in or you
will be disappointed. NO under 21 year old parties. Contact
the office for booking details.
Prize Quiz
There is a prize quiz at Elm Grove every Monday night which starts
around 8:45 pm. Lewes Road and Elm Grove have a quiz Sunday
lunchtime. You can play on your own or as a
team. It's good fun, so switch off the T V and give your brain
some exercise.
Club Safety
At the start of any event in the club the club evacuation
procedure will be explained. This is very important and should
be listened to as it may save your life.
Fire Kills, don't become a statistic.
