ASKERN XMAS FAYRE GALA -- PHOTO ALBUM 2016
FRIENDS OF ASKERN LAKE (FOAL)
ORGANIZED THE XMAS FAYRE AT THE SAME TIME LAST YEAR, BUT HEAVY RAIN
STOPPED PLAY AND THE EVENT HAD TO BE CANCELLED. THIS YEAR THE
WEATHER WAS MUCH KINDER AND EVERYONE ENJOYED A BRILLIANT EVENT. IT
WAS THE CULMINATION OF TWO YEARS VERY HARD WORK BY A SMALL GROUP
OF DEDICATED MEMBERS OF THE GROUP. NOT ONLY PLANNING THE EVENT AND
RAISING FUNDING, BUT ALSO PROVIDING THE MANPOWER. THE WINE WAS
MULLED, THE CHESTNUTS ROASTED. THE HOT SOUP WAS BOTH WELCOMING
AND DELICIOUS. THE STALLS AND ATTRACTIONS INCLUDING SKATING RINK
ARRIVED AS ARRANGED AND WERE PUT IN PLACE.
FUNDING FOR THE EVENT WAS A MIXTURE OF ACTIVITIES INCLUDING
MEMBERSHIP FEES OF JUST £1 A YEAR, THE DESIGNING, PRODUCTION AND
SELLING OF OUR CALENDARS, DONATIONS AND THE GREEN TOKENS FUND AT
ASDA, TO WHICH RESIDENTS CONTRIBUTED
HERE ARE SOME OF THE PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE 2016 XMAS FAYRE, WHICH ALSO
INCLUDES A SELECTION FROM VISITORS TO THE EVENT AND FOR WHICH WE ARE
VERY GRATEFUL.
WE HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY THEM.
THANKS GO TO THE ASKARNE DAY CENTRE AND TO THE LAKESIDE PRACTICE
FOR ALLOWING US TO USE THEIR FACILITIES. ALSO TO DMBC FOR FACILITATING
THE EVENT
ALSO TO EVERYONE INVOLVED IN WHATEVER CAPACITY IN MAKING IT SUCH A
SUCCESSFUL EVENT...
WHY NOT JOIN US OR ATTEND OUR MEETINGS AT 10am ON THE SECOND
TUESDAY OF THE MONTH AT ALEXANDER HOUSE
WE NEED BOTH FINANCIAL AND PHYSICAL HELP. DO YOU HAVE FUNDRAISING
IDEAS FOR NEXT YEARS EVENT OR WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER, THEN PLEASE
GET IN TOUCH....
WISHING YOU A HAPPY CHRISTMAS FROM ALL AT FOAL
