Rescue Xmas 2006

CHRISTMAS PARTY ON 26TH NOVEMBER 2006

The new Rescue started by Rose Phillips had its first Christmas Party on 26^th November. The support for this event was overwhelming with over 80 people and their Petits and Grands attending. A hot lunch was provided followed by scrumptious desserts organised by Gail Clifton. Lorna Fuhri and Roxy Openshaw ran a huge tombola and raffle. Greta Mycock baked a wonderful Christmas cake for guess the weight. Chris & Lisa Leacy kept the music going all day.

Everyone was in the true spirit of Christmas. All dogs wore Christmas hats and some were dressed up in festive dress. Various games, races and novelty classes took place throughout the day which was judged by Santa Claus.
