The Draw raised £670 in Ticket Sales, with a net profit of £585.00 after allowing for additional donations of £90, the cost of the tickets and the £100 cash prize that came out of the takings.

The Committee offers its sincere thanks for all the prizes, which were generously donated by members or friends, particularly John Penfold who once again most generously provided the hamper for the second prize.  Many thanks are also due to all those people who kindly bought tickets and made personal donations to the Draw, including The Complete Outdoors of Bourne End who sponsored the Draw Tickets, Arlon Printers who again printed a superb copy of our local Newsletter free of charge, but also provided the labour to fill our envelopes that were sent with the Grand Draw Tickets, Annual Newsletter and Programme; and Arlon’s MD/Committee Member, Richard Cockerill, who sold about £100 worth of tickets.

The Promoter Peter Bolton with his wife Susan administered and supervised the drawing of the tickets and were responsible for the distribution of the prizes.
