The
Bungay Christmas Lights Committee has been working hard
over the last two years to cope with new
working-practices, safety and insurance demands to
replace/update/renew the Christmas display which has
served Bungay so well for nearly 20 years since the great
Millennium Wish Upon a Star event.
We
are being supported by a number of local public bodies so
that the costs of installing and dismantling the Christmas
lights can be covered each year, but the costs of
maintenance, repairs and renewals need to be met from our
own fundraising efforts.
As
mentioned above, these efforts have had to be redoubled
recently and so far we've bought in extra funds this year
from extra private donations, tombola's and joint events
at The Castle and The Fisher Theatre.
We
still need to keep up the momentum if we are to achieve
the necessary works and purchase the new equipment. Hence
we telling you of our latest fundraising event.
Thanks
to Betty and John Warnes we are hosting a Lasagne Lunch in
their beautiful garden on Sunday 29th September. Suffolk
Stonehouse are very kindly making the Lasagnes (there will
also be a vegetarian lasagne) and members of the committee
are making the accompaniments. There will be a cheese
board and a selection of lovely desserts, there will of
course be wine. Lunch will be followed by a super raffle.
There
will be table of 6, so you could come as a group if you
prefer. Please do pass this email on to your family and
friends. All details are on the attached poster which I
would be grateful if you could display (if you have the
space) Booking is only a phone call away!
We
hope to see you at the lunch.
Kind
regards,
