Hello All
Tina has asked me to let you know that, Covid permitting, a Ladies ‘Bit of a Christmas Do’ is planned for Thursday 9th December at The Forest Park Hotel, Rhinefield Road, Brockenhurst SO42 7ZG: https://forestpark-hotel.co.uk/.
The cost of £35 pp covers two courses plus a glass of wine on arrival and you can choose whether you would like a starter and main or a main and dessert.
Arrangements have been made with Ken Ball to pay an initial deposit of £5 per person with full payment required by latest 22nd November.
So – what is needed I hear you all cry!
· RSVP to let me know if you would like to attend by 10th September so that arrangements can be made for the £5 pp non-refundable deposit to be paid
· Complete the attached menu selection sheet (or just let me know your choice) and return to me by 19th November.
· On the night please bring a wrapped Secret Santa gift approx. value £5
· FINALLY – AND MOST IMPORTANT : Ken will pay both the deposit and balance on our behalf and will charge this to the Member’s Rotary Account
I hope all the above makes sense but, if not, please either email me or phone 02380 842762.
After a very difficult 18 months it will be a lovely opportunity for us all to meet up and celebrate Christmas 2021 – we do hope you will be able to make it.
Best wishes
Penny (on Tina’s behalf)
