Helensburgh and District Highland Association.

Report of the Dance on 27th April 2018.

We welcomed 78 members and guests, (a special warm welcome to friends from Ireland) to the Associations April dance.

The music was provided by the Roy Hendrie Scottish Dance Band.  Their selection of tunes and timing were superb to dance to , and if you don’t dance great to listen to.

 

Our April function is usually the night we give donations to local charities, but this year we have already donated £1000.00 to the Fisherman’s Trust to help with the raising of the Nancy Glen trawler which tragically sunk at Tarbert.  For many years the people of Tarbert supported the Association and we felt privileged to be able to help in some small way.  Fortunately the trawler has now been raised.

 The money we are able to donate is down to the generosity of our members who contribute prizes and purchase raffle tickets during the year.  Many thanks to you all.

 On the night  the raffle raised a wonderful £197.00, thanks again.

 

Our next function is a dance on 25th May in the Osprey Suite at the Commodore Hotel starting at 8 p.m.  The music is provided by a band who have entertained us many times, the Ewan Galloway Scottish Dance band.  The A.G.M. will take place during the break.

 

Please join us for a great evening of music and dancing, we would be delighted to see you.
