Thank you Flow Trinidad and Tobago / Columbus Communications for your generosity in donating Flow Free Service door prizes to the UKWC Diamond Jubilee Ball. (Photo by Rachel Lee Young shows MD of Columbus Communications, Brian Collins, with some of the prize winners) The Jubilee Ball was a glittering occasion! Wonderful decorations courtesy Brian MacFarlane, very civilised music, surprise appearance by Wendell Constantine, lots of door prizes, raffle and silent auction. We had a nice write up by Anne Hilton (past UKWC president) in Newsday. Lots of photos in our Photo Album. From the caption: Lance-Corporal Andrew “Piper” Parsons gives the children of the Princess Elizabeth Centre a musical treat. Parsons and Brian MacFarlane will be guests at a gala fund-raising Diamond Jubilee Ball at the Hyatt Regency, Port of Spain, on June 9 to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s coronation. Parsons has been flown in especially for the event and has been loaned to the UK Women’s Club by the London Scottish Regimental Band. Photo: Abraham Diaz. Join us for an evening of glitz and glamour at the Hyatt Regency to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Entertainment, raffle, professional photographs, good food, wine and company. This is a major fundraising event for us, so invite all your friends, prepare your evening dress and come along for a wonderful evening - all in a good cause! Click for more information. The UKWC blog has been very quiet recently and I do apologise for the absence of updates to the website.
I do want to help keep the Club alive, so feel free to contact me with information, photos and updates for the website and I will do my best to include them. Last month I had the pleasure of attending the fundraising film premier of The Iron Lady. Although I took my 13 year old son along, who struggled to stay awake (clearly didn't appreciate the history lesson), I really enjoyed it and the Club raised almost $40,000 with the event. Congratulations to everyone involved! This month we have the elections for the new committee. I wish everyone good luck with volunteering and carrying on all the good work. On 9th June there will be a Grand Diamond Jubilee ball at the Hyatt Hotel. Be sure to put the date in your diary and book your tickets early to avoid disappointment. It's sure to be a wonderful event, and what a nice excuse to buy a new dress! Please contact Terri Sheed via [email protected] if you would like to help with this event. On 14th July, 10.30am - 12.30pm our President, Pauline Lynas, is hosting a fund raising coffee morning at her apartment in Westmoorings. There will be tea, coffee, juice and lots of lovely things to eat! Come and enjoy some friendly company and delicious food while helping to raise money for local charities. Contribution: $50 Contact us for more information.
Our tireless Pub Quiz team are revving up for this year's Pub Quiz, where we will drink a toast to the happy Royal couple on their wedding day.
