October Sports Event: Rugby Day with meal at Scarborough Rugby Club

Darren has arranged another Rugby Day and meal  for Saturday, 26 October. The event proved very popular last year and we hope it will be a success also this year.

Scarborough are playing Rochdale.

The cost is £25.00 entry per person to be paid via your own Scarborough 41 Club personal account or £25.00 on the day to Darren.  This covers entry to the match (viewing from either balcony or pitch side) and a 2 course meal. 

We have 24 places available and Darren would appreciate if you could email him if you intend to come.  His address is in the Club Directory (available via Mike Shingler if you have deleted your copy).

If there are insufficient numbers to make 24 guests (two tables) Darren will open it up to guests/family , but just initially he would like to see who can make it.

The meeting time is 1.00 pm in the Rugby Club function room upstairs and the meal commences at 1.30 pm followed by the match.

The bar will be open and ready for business.

If there are any special dietary requirements then please Darren know so he can arrange accordingly.
