Winter Club Events Diary
At the moment we have the following regular events on at our club up to Christmas:-
FRIDAY CLUB NIGHTS - we are returning, at least until Christmas, to opening the clubhouse and bar every Friday evening (for much of last winter it was fortnightly) for games and an opportunity to meet up, enjoy a drink and socialise. From Friday 11th October we will start the winter CRIB & DOMINO LEAGUES for which a notice requesting pairs has gone up in the clubhouse - we can extend these Friday club nights to other games if you have any suggestions. The main thing is we have a weekly opportunity to meet up and socialise . . . .
TUESDAY BRIDGE NIGHTS - this has already started for the 2023/24 winter to take place in the clubhouse every Tuesday evening.
SATURDAY (fortnightly) BINGO NIGHTS - these will take place again this winter every 2 weeks on Saturdays with the initial 2024/25 bingo night being held on Saturday 19th October.
In addition to these we hope to stage the annual race night on a Saturday night in February 2025 as well as 3 or 4 quiz nights. The first of these quizzes this winter will be hosted by Keith and Holly on Saturday 26th October for which a nomination sheet will be going up shortly in the clubhouse. We would like to stage a second quiz night at the club before Christmas on Saturday 7th December - if you, or a few of you, want to host this please let me know. Any suggestions for other winter events at WBC please contact Keith Myall .
