Metheringham Animal Welfare Supporters

Metheringham Animal Welfare Supporters would like to say a big thank you to all who supported the Christmas Market on Saturday 18 November in Metheringham Village Hall. The generosity of Lincolnshire businesses, MAWS members and the public who donated 59 raffle prizes and almost 600 tombola prizes, not forgetting all the home made cakes etc, is amazing and so very, very much appreciated.
After much hard work and with more than a few hiccups behind the scenes. Despite being short staffed on the day (due to volunteers moving from the area and illness), the MAWS team pulled out all the stops and against all the odds, put on a fantastic day. A day that many folk will talk about and remember fondly for some time to come. That only goes to prove again, they are not just the “A Team” but “The Professionals” - How much did they raise?
A massive £877.20 - Brilliant!
The icing on the cake...... Urban Challenge in Lincoln are paying for the Hall hire and advertising this year. So that is ALL profit!.
They have also helped with a Display stand, IT Equipment and prizes. Bless them and all of you for caring and supporting MAWS so well.
MAWS committee would like to take this opportunity to wish all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Next event: An evening with Bryan Gibson (Medium) on Thursday 15 February 2007 in Metheringham Village Hall (doors open 7 pm) - starts 7.30 unti 9 pm followed by raffle. admission by ticket only, £5.00 each.
Refreshments available at the interval.
Tickets can be purchased from MAWS office, 31 Station Road, Metheringham on Monday & Friday 9.30 am to 1.00 pm or phone 01526 321436 for details
