Area Events in 2010
Summer Garden Party with BBQ or buffet lunch followed by cream tea
Saturday 21st August at 12.30 p.m. onwards
This event has been very popular over the last few years with over 50 attending last year.
It will be a party with a difference:- a Fancy Dress Pageant with a theme - international costume. The prerequisite for all attending will be at least a token attempt to meet the dress code - suggestions: Mexican Sombrero, Sarong - for the Beckham's amongst you or even a pair of clogs that some of you Gen. X's may have in the closet. There will be a prize for the best costume and act.
Cost: £4.00 payable in advance - Book early to avoid disappointment

October 16th - English Ceilidh (lively Barn Dance)
at Southbourne Village Hall, near Chichester 7.30 pm - 11.00pm
Normally we have between 40 - 50 people at this event.
English Ceilidhs are different from Discos or other popular types of dance in that they are very interactive and you can have a go without feeling silly and can help to keep you fit. You don't even have to be a natural dancer. The emphasis is on enjoying yourself and on having fun.
We ask everyone to bring a dish. The item to bring is stated on the ticket (we end up with a feast) and I nearly forgot - something to drink - Barn Dances are thirsty work!
The interval provides a great opportunity to get introduced to new friends and renew old aquaintances as well as having a good knosh up.
We are very lucky to have John Shakespeare from the West Midlands to call for us. He has a great style and some pretty cool music to dance to (thankfully not that 'um-pah, um-pah' sound!)
On these occasions we have people coming from as far away as Dorset and Brighton, well, even as far as London.
A great occasion to get linked up and have some fun!
Tickets £5 (to cover the hall hire and John's expenses.)
The address for the Southbourne Village Hall is:
Southbourne Village Hall, First Avenue, Southbourne PO10 8HN.

Walking & Cycling weekend at Burley in the New Forest
Friday 5th to Sunday 7th November
Enjoy a relaxing time out in the country
Set in the New Forest near the Olde Worlde villge of Burley, this Country House is in a quiet secluded location.
On the Saturday you will have a number of possibilities such as walking in the New Forest, visiting Beaulieu Motor Museum, Christchurch or Bournemouth. We are not far from the sea- just so much to cram in. Maybe even a late night walk.
If you have a mountain or off-road bike you may like to bring it along. You can also hire them from a shop in the village
COST: £54 or £49.50 if booked before the end of September. Although we are hiring the entire hostel we are not filling every bed so that everybody has got more space and there are less people in each room.
For more details please contact: email info@southcoastevents.org.uk
November 20th - See a West End Show
We hope to get a group together to see the musical Oliver followed by a meal at an Italian restaurant.
If this is of interest and you wish to join us that day please let SCE know before the end of April. We are going for the £25 tickets. There is an extra booking fee of £2 and 75p restoration levy. The full price of the ticket is therefore £27.75
