THE ABINGDON LIONS GALA DAY MONDAY 27TH AUGUST 10AM-4PM |
A SUCCESSFUL DAY THOUGH DOWN ON LAST YEAR RAISING £500. IT WAS VERY HOT WHICH DETERRED PEOPLE FROM STAYING AND SPENDING ALONG WITH THE EXTREMELY LOUD MUSIC FROM FUSION RADIO DURING THE MORNING UNTIL THEY FINALLY TURNED IT DOWN AFTER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. NIGEL THE CLOWN DID A MUCH BETTER JOB AND THE AFTERNOONS ENTERTAINMENT WAS MUCH BETTER. THANKYOU TO THE ABINGDON LIONS CLUB FOR ORGANIZING THE EVENT |
FLORENCE PARK FESTIVAL SATURDAY 8TH SEPTEMBER ALL AFTERNOON |
AFTER A RATHER UNCERTAIN START WEATHERWISE IT TURNED INTO A VERY NICE DAY RAISING £324 AND OUR TOMBOLA SOLD OUT. THE ONLY BAD POINT WAS THE ATTITUDE AND BAD ORGANISATION BY ONE PARTICULAR OXFORD CITY COUNCIL EMPLOYEE WHO SEEMED TO THINK IT WAS DANGEROUS TO LEAVE A PARKED CAR BEHIND THE STALL BUT IT WAS SAFE TO DRIVE IT THROUGH CROWDS OF PEOPLE TO THE CAR PARK! IT WAS VERY NICE TO MEET THE HEAD OF CARE AT THE DOUGLAS HOUSE UNIT AT HELEN HOUSE WHO HAPPENED TO BE THERE AND WAS DELIGHTED THAT WE ARE RAISING MONEY FOR THE NEW DOUGLAS HOUSE. |
WE ALSO DONATED $100 TO THE AMERICA DISASTER FUND |
