Karaoke

The next Karaoke night will be on the May Day bank holiday Sunday 5^th May. The following one will be on the Whitsun bank holiday (Sunday 26^th May).

 

Race Night

Now approaching the final hurdle, there will be a charity Race Night starting at 8pm (finishing about 10.30pm) on Saturday 11^th May, 2024, in aid of “dreams come true”.

 

You can back the Owner, Trainer and Jockey for only £2, be a race sponsor for a minimum of £10, and have tote betting at £1. There will also be a free quiz and music on the night.

 

It is a worthy cause so please give it your support.

 

European Football

Just a heads up that we will be showing the England Euro football games scheduled for June either in the bar area or hall (or both). Please ask a bar member if you want to watch any live sport that’s on a free-to-view channel.
