A big thank you to everyone who turned out for the 2019 TARA Hallowe’en ceilidh on Saturday 26 October at the Wheatsheaf Hall. Much jigging, some wonderful costumes and a great deal of hilarity. People travelled from as far afield as Acton, Barnes and goodness knows where else. Many thanks to Tommy Candler for these great pictures:
Thank you to…
… the many people who made it all possible:
- Set-up, kitchen and door: Bhavani, Celia, Dolina, Ed, Indiana, Helen H, Hocine, Judy, Mike, Vikram
- Door drops: Celia, Harriet, Mark, Phinella
- Printing: John T
- Raffle: John C marshalled a high-performing team who leaned nicely on local businesses to donate prizes (see below): Helen H, Dolina, Hocine, Matt, Bhavani; Niamh called the numbers with great aplomb
- The band were amazing. Our thanks to Chris (caller/guitar), Jo on fiddle and Philip on accordion
Also thank you to these great local businesses who donated raffle prizes
