LET LOOSE PARTY
Light up winter's darkness with a party in the beautiful Gorge Pavilion. Live music, sing-a-long, Scottish & other dancing -- LET LOOSE!
Jean and Lisbie invite you to join them for a rip-roaring party -- dance your way into 2026! Bring comfy shoes to dance to the music of Fred Chester the way we used to do and get ready to learn some Scottish Country Dances too. Sing-a-long with Fred's guitar to the songs we grew up with.
We'll provide coffee, tea and nibbles; you can bring a plate of finger-food if you like. All ages of friends and family are welcome up to a maximum of 80 people. Donations to the Stephen Lewis Foundation will be gratefully gratefully accepted at the event or online here
Une table sera réservée pour ceux qui veulent parler français. Asseyez-vous là si vous voulez pratiquer votre français.
Carpooling or cycling is recommended.
