What’s Next?
Coffee Morning @ Liberty, The Quay, Brixham. Monday 23 February 9.30 – 1 p.m.
Not part of our planned Programme but something the good people of Liberty’s have organised for us as a Fundraiser and something of a Thank You to our Crews over the Christmas period. I know we have our own CM the following day @ The Boat House in Paignton but please try to support this if you can, Raffle available and they have another Event planned for us when the weather improves and when we can take advantage of the seating area across the road.
Coffee Morning @ The Boat House, Marina Drive Paignton Tuesday 24 Feb 10a.m. – 11.30 a.m.:
Fletch & Shelley host us once again at this popular and spacious venue, usual £3 on the Door plus Raffle & Home-made Cakes/Jams.
Quiz Night @ Brixham Yacht Club Wednesday 18 February 8 p.m. – 10 p.m.:
Not part of OUR programme but if you will forgive me I just list this on behalf of our Supporter Penny Jolley and the BYC who are always supportive of our Fundraising Events. In aid of the Brixham Heritage Regatta (poster attached) Please support Penny and her Team if you can.
Offshore Food/Music Weekend 9 & 10th May. @ The Banjo, Torquay:
I am purposely jumping ahead to this Event as it will need plenty of our personal support. Last year we benefited to the tune of £9k a significant amount for a one-day Event. This year organiser Brett Morton plans a 2-day Event. Our roles are once again to manage the 2 Entrances taking donations and handing out wristbands. If you feel you can spare a couple of hours please let me know or Debbie Philipps on 07799 055680
Check out the March & April Events on your Programme.
