THANKS TO EVERYONE ON THE ORGANISING COMMITTEE AND ESPECIALLY TO THOSE WHO BOUGHT TICKETS FOR THE 2014 SUMMER CHARITY DANCE.    



     

The total ticket sales were similar this year to last.


The increase in ticket price from £7 to £8 resulted in a significant increase in gross income.

   

Thanks to the raffle folk there was a significant increase in raffle income.

    

Donations were a healthy £20+   

  

The discount on the ice-cream wasn't as good this year as last but taking price rises into account it wasn't too bad - and the ice-cream was very good!!


Sundry catering costs were kept low.    


     

THE CHARITY DANCE RAISED £840.


DANCERS, SUPPORTERS AND ORGANISERS CAN ALL BE


PROUD OF OUR ACHIEVEMENT AGAIN THIS YEAR!!
