Fund Raising
We run several regular
fund raising schemes and they are open to all members.
The Bonus
Ball
A weekly draw based on the 49 numbers in
the National Lottery. Tickets cost £1 a go and are sold on Wednesday evening at
the clubhouse. The winning number is the following Saturday's Bonus Ball. You
have a 1 in 49 chance of winning £30. The club has the balance which amounts to
around £1,000 per year. If you cannot get to the club on Wednesday you can pay
several weeks up front and pick a permanent number - just contact Terri Shotton
or one of the wine Committee.
The 300 Club
Limited to 300
participants and open to all including non-members -
it only costs £24 a year or £12 semi annually.
This
is a valuable contributor to Club funds. Monthly prizes - for eight months of the
year are 1 x £75, 1 x £50 & 1 x £25 then there are two months of biggies - £300
and 2 x £100; one in the
summer and one at Christmas - in March & September £150, £100 & £50.
All proceeds are for the benefit of the Young Athletes

The National Lottery
Syndicate raises funds for the Club and gives the subscribers the opportunity to
benefit if or when we are fortunate to have a big win. It has been running for
14 years and over that time has raised over £7,500 for the club. Cost is
£10 per quarter by standing order (£40 per annum). Small wins go direct to the
club large ones are split 25% to the club with the remaining balance split
between the subscribers (currently 60). Details from David King

On 3 September 2005 we had a big win! We were lucky to get
5 numbers and the bonus ball on a week that paid out more than normal. The
Syndicate won £313,770. This means that the Club received £78,000 and
the Syndicate members shared the balance. Most of the members have been in from
the beginning (some 10 years ago) and had not received a penny up to that point
- but had invested £400.
