Many thanks to everyone who attended and also to everyone who helped out at our Fun Quiz fund raiser on Saturday.

We had 81 people with 16 teams and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.

The great news is that we managed to raise enough money to allow us to undertake further improvement projects to our local bridleways.

After costs for food and including raffle ticket sales of £160 we raised –

£900.68

Brilliant, Thank you!

We are planning to have our AGM and social meeting on Thursday 25th April and will discuss plans etc. Further details to follow.

We currently have 7 tables booked so looks like we will be able to go ahead with the Quiz on the 6th April

We need to finalise details.

Quiz Rounds – Please check below. I think we were having 4 question rounds, who have I missed?

John & Gill – General Knowledge

Alison & Debbie – Pot Luck

Clare – Photo Round

Chris & Jo -Masterchef Skill Test

Louise & Andy – Horse Trivia

Raffle – I recall someone said they had some raffle tickets we can use. Please confirm. Also we said rather than drawing tickets we would randomly put a ticket on each prize on a table and then sell tickets sealed in an envelop. People can then check to see if they have won a prize. We will need raffle prize donations. Pip are you still happy to run the raffle?

Food – Jo will organise this but will need some help on the night (volunteers). Jo needs final numbers by end Easter Monday 1st April. Please can you make sure that you have booked with Jo.

Payment – Please pay for your tickets by BACs (preferred) Lloyds Bank, Clee View Bridleways Group, Account Number: 14041868, Sort Code 30-67-88 or let us know if you want to pay by cash on the night.

To make sure the evening is a success we need your help!

Thanks

We urgently need to raise funds to help pay for materials and equipment hire to allow us to do any improvement projects this year. Please tell all your friends and especially anyone that rides.

Would the people that have agreed to do a round confirm that they are still happy to do this. Jo has agreed to do the food. We will need help on the night to set-up etc.

Note: We do need people to let us know they are coming for numbers for catering. When people contact us we will encourage payment prior to the event by bank transfer or cash on night and to bring some cash to pay for raffle tickets. Everything we raise goes to maintain and improve our bridleways!

Feel free to let me know if the poster can be improved (I have kept it very simple) and promote this wherever we can.

We will have a meeting on Wednesday 28th February starting at 7:30pm at Clare Ratcliff’s home (Shunesley). Main purpose to arrange a fund raising Quiz event.

Please let me or John know if you are able to attend or if you cannot attend let us know if you are OK to help with the Quiz event (date to be agreed one evening late March (before Easter).

We are proposing to hold a meeting/AGM on evening of Wednesday 28th Feb, venue TBC.

Please let Chris or John know if you are able/not able to attend on this date and we will then confirm the date.

As part of the meeting we need to discuss details for a Quiz fund raiser to be held before Easter (end March). Cleeton Village Hall hall is probably a good choice of location for the Quiz.

We are proposing to hold an Meeting/AGM early March. We also urgently need to raise funds as we currently have no money left!

We are proposing to hold a fund raising Quiz late March early April. We can discuss details at the AGM. Your support/help will needed.

Pete and Chris have fixed the gate at the top of Hill Houses so that it is now useable without having to dismount.
