SCARA 10th Annual Reunion Lunch Thursday 22/10/2015

Post date: Nov 12, 2015 9:52:10 PM

Thank you to everyone who made this 10th annual SCARA reunion a resounding success. Not only was the weather kind to us but the return to the Park Crescent Conference Centre in London’s Great Portland Street was very well received.

As in previous years, we were pleased to see some new faces, very glad to see the usual suspects and sorry to miss those that were unable to attend for whatever reason.

It was our great pleasure to welcome Lady St. Johnston as our honoured guest and also Robert Woods who gave a very brief address.

We were also delighted to hear from Roger Brown who, together with Adrian Malupa, organise the annual Golf Rose Bowl Challenge.

The winner this year was Steve Gawler but due to illness he was unable to attend the reunion for the presentation.

A full list of attendees, including one or two late cancellations, is printed below.

The following are examples of the feedback that has been received from members who attended the event:

"Dear Belinda... just a quick email to thank you for a really good reunion. The venue was a definite improvement on the last and speaking to various people present, they all prefer a weekday rather than a Friday... I look forward to seeing you next year!" [Ray Davis]

"Dear Belinda... Just to say how much I enjoyed the lunch on Thursday. It really worked well didn't it... As always it was beautifully organised and it was lovely too see everybody... A happy atmosphere all round. All best wishes..." [Lady Charlotte St. Johnston].

"Good morning Belinda... Yesterday’s gathering was the usual convivial and greatly enjoyable occasion - and many thanks for your continuing terrific stewardship of SCARA affairs... I thought that the Park Crescent Conference Centre was good, and I would certainly be more than happy if we continued to use it again on future occasions... Salaams [Tony Blumer]

"Hi Belinda... Thank you very much for organising the event today. The venue, I thought was much improved... and the food was plentiful. Bar prices, for what I bought, were reasonable too... Very happy to be back there again next year." [Martin Lloyd]
