Northants IVC Barn Dance
|
|
|
1930 hrs
NIVC have invited MKIVC to join their charity fundraising Grand Autumn Barn Dance at Parsons Memorial Hall, Leys Lane, Great Houghton, Northants. NN4 0AN. There’s a top band and caller (to tell us where to put all our left feet) - and a bar. Food included. It promises to be great fun and it's a chance to meet up again with those from NIVC who came down to the MK Summer BBQ - and also a chance to make some new friends.
The proceeds from the event go towards two local charities NIVC are supporting this year namely: The Northampton Door To Door Service and Northamptonshire Carers. Both are highly deserving causes and can do with as much help as we can afford. So as well as coming along and having fun, you'll also be contributing towards people who will really appreciate and benefit from the support.
If you don't fancy driving there's a Premier Inn just over a mile from the venue (offers twin rooms at £51). Please be quick to book tickets.
Contact me as I'm also a member of Northants IVC and have offered to act as 'local ticket distributor', Please also let Gilly know if you are interested so we can co-ordinate transport, rooms if wanted, etc.
