Dear Sir,
There were many great comments after TV award winning comedian Patrick Monahan appeared at Woodham Golf Club on the 7th July to raise funds for Horndale Residents Association.
Patrick took time out of his busy schedule to entertain us and from arriving to leaving he gave his full attention to the 100 people in the audience. During the interval he spoke to each table and then went on to do his second slot which was a rehearsal for his Edinburgh Festival Show.
Thank you to Mandy and John at the Golf Club and their staff for the generous help and support given in making the evening a success.
“The best pie and peas I have ever had” was one comment. Also thanks to Greenfield College for use of their stage and to Richard Agar for moving it and supplying blackout screens – all in all a good community effort.
Over the last few months, we held an Easter family fun day in partnership with Aycliffe Evangelical Church, bus trips to Discovery Museum Newcastle and Whitby and all our trips for August are fully booked.
These events are funded by the Big lottery and all money raised with ticket sales are put into other community events.
