The dinner dance and awards night was a huge success. For the first time we had a live band, called Dakota, and they provided some excellent music, which certainly got the crowd dancing. Our guest Compares, namely Tim Harvey and Alan Hyde, were equally brilliant, and they helped present the awards along with our various sponsors. All the award winners are listed with the music quiz answers and congratulations to all those who turned up, some of whom received extra prizes.
Special thanks go to Sandra and Ken Angell for organising and supplying all the trophies. It was also good to see the resurrection of various club awards, some of which have been refurbished and looked stunning. The music quiz actually produced a tie, so we awarded prizes to both the winners. With the band playing until 1AM, everyone had a great time. This was the last time I am organising this event, as the baton is moving on to someone else. It just remains to say thank you to all those who helped make it a great evening.
