31 Oct 2010 : Rokafella Band's Halloween Party

Their annual Halloween charity fancy dress bash will be on Sunday 31st October (Halloween night!) at -

Goal Sports Bar
Green St Green Rd
Dartford
Kent
DA11QE
6.30pm - 10.30pm

As it's a Sunday, it will all be kicking of as early as possible. There will be prizes for best kids and adults costumes, raffles, a quiz questionaire paper (not compulsory but a bit of fun at no cost) and last but not least, live music from your very own 'Rokafella'.

It's a great, venue and should be a fun evening. The kids always love dressing up and we've even arranged to have the floodlit astro-pitch adjacent to the bar, available for the evening, so the more energetic will have somewhere to let off steam.
This is our 6th year of having these parties and they've all been top nights, so we're really hoping you will support us again in raising a bit of money for the Bexley TOMCC Christmas toy run, get into the spirit of Halloween, dress up at least a bit!! and join us for a fun time!

Tickets are £5 per adult, with all kids under 18 free, available from Jackie on TOMCC club nights or on the door.

12 Dec 2010 : Christmas Toy Run

Provisional times: Meet at the Pied Bull 10:00 a.m. for 10:30 departure. We will be visiting two children's homes and returning to the Pied Bull afterwards for some refreshment.
