FIREWORK EXTRAVAGANZA


(Click on the arrows to watch the clips)

At the AGM David informed us that the Firework Dinner Dance which was to be held on Saturday was cancelled due to lack of support. However he did say that if 20 or more of us turned up he would set off some of the fireworks. Never one to turn down a challenge and after very little encouragement more than 40 members and their children turned up at the club house where a host of games and fun were organised. Firstly we had REAL judges for 'Strictly Come Dancing' which was on the 'big screen' while we all enjoyed a wonderful meal. Frankie Moran did us proud and brought along his 'Wii'. Following 'Strictly' we had 4 teams of 4 players take on the 'Strathmore Bowling Challenge' it was brilliant fun but some of our lady members got somewhat excited by it all as you can see from the video and photos.



David then treated us to a fantastic Firework display. What a brilliant event! Really breath taking. Well done David they were truly amazing as you can see from the very short clip above! Sorry didnt manage to get a longer one!

When we all came back from the display we held a matchplay 'Tiger Woods Challenge Golf Championship' on Frankie's Wii, as you can see from the photos below it was such good fun. The eventual winners were Julieann and her son Robbie. However we now know how the Gents past Captain will fill his time over the winter months!The whole night was a huge success and our sincere thanks go to David for a fantastic evening enjoyed by all age groups, also to Frankie Moran for bringing along his game for us all to play! Looking forward to the next one already!




I do hope you enjoy the slide show and the new video clips! I just hope you all don't run away now when I appear with my camera in hand!

    HALLOWEEN STRATHMORE STYLE!

    Centre manager David Norman and his wife Lorraine hosted what was a fantastic evening of fun for both adults and children alike. The Club House was completely transformed, the work involved was huge. The decorations and music were more than we could ever imagine, just brilliant! David and Lorraine really threw themselves into a wonderful party night. With games and fun for all of us. Firstly the children had to search for hidden spoons in the car park, then we had eating sticky buns and burying our heads in rice krispies to rescue hidden marshmallows! We had to lift Maltesers with straws and place in bowls! Wrapping unsuspecting adults with toilet roll 'mummy style', musical statues and much more! There were prizes for all the games and also best dressed boy and girl and gent and lady.


    As you can see some of the costumes were brilliant! Fabulous fun was had by everyone if you didn't go you missed a tremendous evening so settle down and watch some of the fun in the photos below. Thanks go to Marion who supplied some of the photos! and many many thanks Lorraine and David for a wonderful evening!
