Well with only a day to go before this years Annual Presentation Night at Newdigate Club, thought it would be good to advise you on the order of events:
- We have sold out of tickets which is excellent.
- We are unable to change or refund tickets now as food is ordered and seating plan completed.
- Unfortunately we will be unable to entertain any one who wants to attend on the night due to numbers & the Clubs fire regulations.
- Please bring your tickets with you.
- Please try and arrive and be seated for around 7 p.m.
- We are trying to commence the presentation as early as possible.
- With around 60 Trophies and awards to present this will take a while.
- We will be asking that every attendee is courteous throughout all the awards - its important each winner gets the same support from all attendees.
- We have £250 worth of raffle prizes - so please bring CASH with you.
- On arrival can you please make sure your Club members sit in the seats allocated - with the room full there is no space to be moving things around.
- We hope to complete the presentation by 8.30 pm latest
- This will be followed by the Buffet - Clubs will be asked to collect food by table.
- Following Buffet we will have the Raffle draw followed by Disco
- Bar will close at 11.30 pm.
I am sure this will be a fantastic night and a celebration of the Bowling successes throughout 2023
