Bognor
Prom 10K Road Race 2009
|
|
The Bognor Prom 10K Road
Race has been staged every year since 1995, and attracts
serious club runners from all over the South of England, as
well as individuals and families with no club allegiance. It
was good to see a strong local presence at the event and
even better to hear of the Funds Raised !

Martin’s
Gala Ball 2008 |

The fund is blessed to
have had such amazing support from the guests at
Martin’s Gala Ball.
It was great to have
had the contribution from so many different sources
during these
difficult times. Yet again this Great event was a big
success and raised over £6000 for Meningitis Research. |

MFMF
Halloween 2008 |
|
‘Twas
a dank and dark October eve in Bognor Regis old town that a
strange gathering was taking place. The pale moon was
casting eerie shadows. The invitations were for Witches and
Warlocks but the rumors suggested that many more scary
characters were en route for the meeting. |

of The Caribbean 2007 |

Arrrgh matey, twas a still
misty evening when the Pink Pearl came along side the quay
side at Manor Farm Easterergate on the 14th July.
The torches were burning on the dock, was this going to be
the curse of the pink pearl, not at all ? |

Martin's
Masked Gala Ball 2006 |
|
We
had been considering a Masked Ball for some time (certainly
from long before the Hijab debate!) and decided that this
was the year. The cabaret Kryptic Movement went down very
well with their unique blend of Hip hop, Break dance, Kung
fu and Latin styles. Another Great Success ! |

Martin's Gala Ball 2005 |

Its takes something a bit
special to put on a night like this and a lot of hard work
and careful preparation are key to making this wonderful
night go so smoothly ! Over 230 Guests turned up for the 5th
Year of Martin's Gala Ball which still goes to prove that
our support from all our friends and family is stronger than
ever. |

Despite the
strong competition from other activities (notably the Chichester

while Rays performance in the saddle (with Golden Handbag) raised
over £130. |
