Summer Event 2010

A week has passed since our Summer Event and we've just about recovered! Many thanks to those who came to Teddington - we're sure you'll agree that it was a fantastic day.

The afternoon kicked off with egg & spoon and sack races for the children followed by a highly competitive parents 3 legged race. It was then on to softball, volleyball and football where the Green Team were ultimately victorious - so congratulations to them.

After the BBQ the auction got into full swing with furious (and some unintentional) bidding over some lots and then the Bass One Band pleased their fans with another rocking set. Those with energy left after all of that were treated to a DJ and dancing which brought the day to a close. All in all, it was an amazing day.

Most importantly, however, we're thrilled to tell you that the charity auction, fete and the raffle all helped us raise £2767.36 for the Shooting Star Children's Hospice. Base One has also decided to chip in by doubling this figure, bringing the overall total to a whopping £5534.72. We have to thank all the businesses and individuals who donated items for the auction and the raffle - the day wouldn't have been such a success without you.

Photos of the day are up for all to see on Flickr (plus those from 2009 and 2008 if you can remember that far back) and there is video waiting in the wings too...
