ASSOCIATION REUNION CORNWALL

Transcription

1 Calling all Ex, Serving and Reserve members of the DCLI, Light Infantry, The Rifles and Cornwall ACF. Come and meet some old friends! Your Ticket will cost just 6.00 and will include admission to Cornwall s Regimental Museum, entertainment by the Cornwall Caledonian Pipes and Drums and St Dennis Brass Band, a locally produced traditional Cornish Pasty or Tiger Bap and free entry into the 50 Cash Prize Draw. (Last years lucky winner was Mr H Symons of Launceston). Tickets will be issued on the day at the gate, to save on postage. Tea and coffee is available all day, and a cash bar from 1200hrs till late, in the lounge. A list of local B&Bs is attached, so why not extend your stay into the evening. The Honorary Regimental Padre, Reverend Canon Graham Minors will take the Memorial Service at the Regimental Memorial at 1400hrs with a Bugler in attendance. As well as the 50 Cash Prize Draw, there will be the usual Raffle, to offset some of our costs so please bring a prize on the day.

2 Drivers can drop off their passengers at the back gate of The Keep, but parking on the road is limited (Disabled Parking Badge holders only please). There is also limited parking in the Bowling Green car park, opposite The Keep, a large lay-by 200 yards up the road towards the Army Reserve Centre and a pay and display car park in Victoria Square (the old Parade Square). Please return the attached Proforma to Mr Scott Rowland, with your payment, by 1 st September 2015 so we know how many to cater for. This is the only chance for ALL members of the Association Branches to have a get together in Cornwall. So come and meet up with some old friends, and get to know some new ones. If you know of anybody who has served, then please pass on a copy of this letter to them. Numbers have started to increase over the last couple of years, which is encouraging. In these times of budgetary constraints the only way we can maintain the reunion is through your continued support. Please encourage others to come along, have a pint and start the conversation off with When I was. Looking forward to seeing you all. N. J.
