Saturday Night was Gold

Lins Emails
 

Hi All

Thank you everyone who has written to say how much they enjoyed Saturday night it was a great evening I think the Botley Park did us proud Steve has written to them to thank them for their part in the evening.  They have been very helpful and accommodating in all of the arrangements and even the chaps who came in to clear up after we all had finished were happy and jolly so I would definitely recommend them to anyone. 

Thanks go to the Committee.

Particularly Steve our newest Committee Member who we threw in at the deep end and he managed the bookings, money etc. with his trusty spread sheet, and everybody got what they ordered with no mishaps well done.  Thank you to Rebecca and her daughter who did an amazing job with the balloons especially the arch, Gilly took it home in the back of her car with Jane and Chris to use for her Granddaughters birthday party, that must have been a fun trip home.  So they were recycled and we bought eco friendly latex ones.
 

Thank you to everyone who brought in secret raffle prizes and the sellers and folders, we made enough money to pay for the balloons and also to give a tip to the waiters.

Are those your tickets you are folding up Matthew?  Or maybe the look on Sarahs face it was you?

The beautiful raffle sellers.

Thanks to Eric our DJ, great music choices especially without them we wouldn’t have had moments like this

 
Killer moves Roy.
The Food was great we particularly liked the tarts.image1.jpeg
Our final song of the night was ‘Gold’ with everyone up on the dance floor dancing and singing –  we had better make sure we get the words right by June?!?!
 
 

Here is the email from Tom our founder member which I think does sum up what New Music Makers is all about and he should know he has been in it for 50 years thanks Tom.

“Last night’s celebration was nothing less than fantastic, one of the most enjoyable celebrations the New Music Makers has ever had. I personally felt so proud and humbled by the fact that I was amongst such genuine friends. The story of the choir has always revolved around love and friendship and the way we always welcome everyone without question. To me it has always been a big extended family. May this feeling last for many more years to come.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to say a few words and I’m sorry if through nerves I didn’t say the things I would have liked to say. But I did my best!

So thank you once again to everyone involved for the vision and the jolly hard work that went into making the evening such an outstanding success.

Best wishes
Tom”

Hi
If anyone is bringing raffle prizes tomorrow could you please wrap them as it is going to be a “surprise” raffle. If you can wrap in gold that would be good but don’t worry.
