Not even the wet weather could dampen the holiday spirit of Santa and his helpers from Lichfield Round Table & Ladies Circle at the Bower on Bank Holiday Monday.(30 May 2011)
As Santa rode into town on his new look sleigh, in his holiday shorts, he was full of the joys of summer. He didn't let the wet weather get in the way of raising money for very needy causes in and around Lichfield. With holiday tunes blaring out from the sleigh throughout the procession Santa and his helpers entertained the rain drenched crowds. The icing on the cake for the two local charity groups was to scoop the 2nd prize for the the most 'Competitive Tableau'! Lichfield Ladies Circle Chair, Gaynor Webb said "I'm so proud of everyone, I could burst!" |
Lichfield Ladies Circle joined forces with Birmingham's Nachda Sansaar Bhangra Dancers to raise the roof on the Guildhall. Over £1000 was raised for local charities during the evening which included an auction of prizes from signed football shirts to beer hampers. The event was heavily supported by Coors Brewery supplying gifts for our gentlemen, in celebration of our links with Lichfield Round Table. Chairman Gaynor Webb said "Our ladies looked so pretty in their traditional Indian outfits and we all had a great time. The annual event will take some beating next year" If you'd like to get involved in the fun, friendship and fundraising of Lichfield Ladies Circle please get in touch. info@lichfieldladiescircle.co.uk. |
