On behalf of Sundays Well Boating & Tennis Club, a Charity Table Quiz event night was held last night in the club. This has become an annual event in the clubs social calendar & has always been well supported & successful. Last nights event was teamed up with the charity partner of the social committees choice of ARC House. This was in memory of a very dear, loved & respected past Club Captain Emma Crowley, who passed away recently, all too soon. With this charity partner & in memory of Emma, it was no wonder the bookings reached capacity in a very short time.
Our event night was very well supported & everybody there enjoyed a very pleasant competitive evening. Our MC & compare on the night was John Coulter. A great friend of the social committee, supporter & facilitator of past quiz night events in the club, all previously well supported, enjoyable & equally successful. With our charity partner of our choice-ARC House- a Go Fund Me Page was created to give the opportunity to those that couldn’t make our event night last night, but still wanted to be part of it & contribute. To date we have raised €2295 as I write this-truly a fantastic response-and we are keeping open the GoFundMe page open a little longer to enable further donations to a very worthy cause.
Before I close, I, on behalf of the social committee would like to acknowledge the following who contributed to making last nights event night the success it was.

As last nights Charity Quiz Night closes the curtain on this social committee’s chapter, I would like to say that on my behalf, it has been a pleasure to serve our membership & club in the various event nights we held successfully over these last years.
My journey was sweetened by the Unfaulting support of a dedicated team beside me & we were able to make significant donations to local charities from successful events held.
