Rushcliffe Conservative Association Annual Dinner on Friday, 25th November 2011

Dear All,

As you all know the, Rushcliffe Parliamentary Constituency is about to be “carved up” by the Boundary Commission, therefore it might be one of the few times left to come along and support our Annual Dinner.

Rushcliffe has over the years put on some memorable occasions, raised funds for the party both locally and nationally and provided help and support to neighbouring constituencies. It has in all respects, represented the Conservative Party magnificently here in this part of the world.

This year’s event is a great way to celebrate that fact and for everybody concerned to show their appreciation. It is also an excellent opportunity to, “meet the neighbours”.

When the Rushcliffe constituency is finally no longer here at the next General Election, those whom come after might need the help and support from the parts they inherit.

Anyway, please find attached details of the event and we hope to see you at the dinner.

Best Wishes
Ian Cooper (Rushcliffe Agent)

The visit to London to be shown round the Palace of Westminster by Karl and his team was a great success, not the least being the use of the direct train from Lincoln for the first time by some of the party. Whilst the majority visited the chambers and other parts of the Westminster estate four of us managed the 365 steps to the top of Big Ben, after which the refreshments on the terrace were most welcome. Thanks are due to Karl, Mel and Michael, as well as neighbouring MP’s, for looking after us.

The Birchwood cheese and wine party held at Jane’s was enjoyed by all those who attended, and showed what can so easily be done to raise funds for the forthcoming election campaign.

On  Friday 7^th October we met at the Castle Hotel and welcomed Sir Kenneth Carlisle back to Lincoln as the guest speaker at the President’s Lunch. Sir Kenneth spoke of the warm memories he had of his time here, and, of course, of our president, George Ashton and his wife Doreen. A Certificate of Outstanding Achievement, signed by David Cameron, was presented to Doreen and George by Karl McCartney.

Coming events.

Monday 17th October, come along to the Monday Meet at the Homestead in Bracebridge Heath which has been getting good reports following a refurbishment. We meet from 7.00pm, and after a drink and something to eat there will be a quiz. This is not a fund raiser, just a social, and with a date chosen to avoid clashes with other events, so there should be no excuses for not supporting us.
