1. Fund raising for our Shed Extension — West Peak Hotel (Fri 26th Oct from 5:30 pm)
This Friday night at the West Peak Hotel the Shed is conducting a raffle which is put on by the Hotel. The Hotel provides the tickets and the prizes (which the Shed pays for out of the takings on the night). We sell the tickets and already have volunteer sellers. We need your support at this function so come down for a meal which is available from 5:30 pm, buy a few tickets and enjoy a fun social evening. Raffle draw is at 7:00 pm — usually have about 30 draws so your chances of a win are very good.
