Another year done and the Dapper Social continues to grow as does the reputation of our wonderful branch!
A huge thank you for your help and support, as well as both branch and individual donations, what an amazing club we have! Particular thanks to those who helped out on the door on Friday night, plus the Dapper Tappers and Dapper Shunters who gave up their day on Sunday to help with the door and parking, you are all amazing and we couldn’t have done it without you!
Our NE branch has through the event, built so many bridges with some amazing businesses and people from the likes of Triumph, to GC Customs, to Prostate Cancer to the newly formed Northumbrian Police unit. All of these guys are huge supporters of what we have managed to achieve through the Dapper Social.
I will post photos etc. once Cat and I get back from our break and also share with everyone the final tally of money raised – I have a good feeling that we have smashed last years total!
The raffle was drawn on Tuesday at Triumph and the video posted to their plus Dapper Social Facebook pages. There were no winners from the branch this year but thanks to all who bought a book and took the time to sell to friends, family and colleagues.
Congratulations go to Keith and Babs for their outstanding effort and generosity to win the auction on Friday night (a nail biting event as the bids kept going up), winning two nights at the magnificent Holly Bush Inn, Derwenthaugh. This is a fabulous prize donated by one of our very own branch members and owner of the Holly Bush Inn, John Thompson! Big thanks John and his wife Lynne, your kind donation has made a big difference!
I will sign off with a just a couple of posts from Triumph, one from their website and one from a message to the Dapper Tappers, they are both fulsome in their praise for the TOMCC NE Branch and its amazing people!
Once again THANKYOU!
