Dunstable Winter Events

During October we are involved with the annual Poppy Appeal, distributing boxes and collecting at supermarkets. Last year the appeal, with the help of other volunteers, raised in excess of £35,000- a fantastic result.

On 24th November we will be holding our annual Race Night at Toddington Village Hall. Tickets are £12.50 which includes a Fish and Chip supper. The first race starts at 19.30.

From 1st December until 24th December, the club, helped this year again by 16 outside organisations, will be touring the streets of Dunstable and surrounding areas, with the Christmas Santa Float. At weekends the float will be on different days at local supermarkets.

For over 25 years our club has distributed lunches on Christmas Day to people less fortunate than ourselves. Last year we delivered over 40 lunches. This would not have been possible without the help and generosity of the Dunstable Salvation Army who supply the lunches.

On 1st January we will be holding our Antiques and Collectors Fair again at Houghton Regis Leisure Centre, Parkside Drive, Houghton Regis LU5 5PY.

This event has also been running for over 25 years and is held on three bank holidays in January, May and August.

For more information regarding any of these events please telephone, in the first instance, Chris Smith, Publicity for the Rotary Club of Dunstable, on e-mail, cgs_28k@hotmail.com
