On Saturday 9th March 2019 Mansfield Rotary & Inner Wheel Clubs held a splendid Irish Evening at Ravenshead Village Hall to raise money for International Charities.

 

Veronica & Ray Malkowski, with the help of Kelvin & Lynn Bowman, Henry & Margaret Thomas and members, organised this highly successful event,  which was attended by around 100 members and friends. There was a warm, friendly atmosphere, as we were enthralled by the performance of the talented, young Irish Dancers, before sampling our tasty plateau of starters, followed by a wholesome Irish Stew with sourdough bread.

We really enjoyed being entertained by the excellent Irish Band, before choosing from a variety of delicious desserts:- whisky bread & butter pudding, brandy cheesecake or fruit salads, all served with whisky or vanilla ice cream and followed by cheese and biscuits. The raffle raised an amazing £339 and, due to the generosity of members, the grand total of just over £1,500 was raised.  Many thanks to everyone, who contributed to this memorable Irish Evening.
