Scarborough wins best National 41 Club website – for the third time!

Our Club has received the following email:

Gentlemen ,

At the AGM on Saturday I announced that the judging committee awarded the best Website award to Scarborough 41 club for ‘Life’s a Beach.’

I currently have the trophy so will try and sort how  we can get it to you from Berkshire – maybe I can get National President Wynn to assist as he lives in Yorkshire .

Congrats .

Dave 
Yours in Continued Friendship and Continued Tabling

Dominic Grunwell , 2024-25 Scarborough 41 Club Chairman, replied:

Charity Fundraising Night 21 October 2023: Sponsorship

Scarborough 41 Club is a social club for ex-members of Scarborough Round Tables. It has existed for over 50 years and during that time as well as providing social activities for members and partners, it has raised considerable amounts of money for both local and national causes.

This year we will be holding a Charity Night at Scarborough Rugby Club on Saturday, 21 October 2023 . The event will comprise a seated hot buffet dinner with wine, followed by entertainment provided by the multi-talented Mark Gregory.

Tickets are priced at £32.50.

We have decided that the two charities to benefit this year will be:-
The Stroke Association – a national charity dedicated to helping with the emotional, practical
and financial cost of strokes, by research into ongoing rehabilitation for stroke survivors.
Westway Open Arms – Westway is a local charity operating out of Westway House in Eastfield.
It provides a food bank and its premises host lunch clubs, craft groups, cooking lessons and
debt managements support for local people.

We would like to invite you to support this event and the two charities, if possible, either by
purchasing tickets, or sponsoring a table. Alternatively any donations would be most
appreciated.

Benefits for Sponsors:

Your name and logo (where applicable) will be added to both the table menus and the
large table plan at the entrance to the room.

We will place your company roll-up banner or similar prominently within the room
should you wish to provide it.

Please use the form below to sponsor the event or make a donation.

Best Wishes and many thanks for any support you are able to give to two such worthy causes

May 2022 Meeting: Geo’s – slight change to pre-meet

We meet at Geo’s (formerly Anton’s) as originally planned. However there are now alternative plans as Seagrown cannot accommodate us. Read on.

We now begin at the Leeds Arms at 6.30pm for those who wish to wet their whistles. As before, it’s then Geo’s at 7.30 for 8.00pm.

Geo’s Restaurant, Foreshore Road, Scarborough, Cocktail Bar & Vibrant Dining, is slap bang on Scarborough seafront. Harbour views: “City Vibe, Sea Side.”

Dominic and John met at Geo’s earlier today to planner evening and Dom says the place looks really swish and should be on top form to entertain us.

Scarborough 41 Club donates to The Rainbow Centre

Scarborough 41 Club has donated £500 to The Rainbow Centre to help them progress their excellent endeavours in offering practical help to vulnerable people in the town’s local community.

We wish The Rainbow Centre continued success in their mission.

Each year the incoming Chairman of Scarborough 41 Club names his chosen charity, to receive donations raised by the members during his year.

The Club’s Chairman for 2021/22 was David Ascough and he chose The Rainbow Centre for their outstanding work in providing debt advice, food and clothing banks together with various other invaluable services to people in need, including the homeless.

The Rainbow Centre was founded in 1997 and is in need of donations of any size whether it be monetary or food and clothing, particularly in the current difficult economic times people are facing.  

Pictured are David Ascough, Scarborough 41 Club Chairman handing over the cheque to Trish Kinsella, Manager and John Trebble, Trustee and volunteer at The Rainbow Centre.
