WEDNESDAY 14 July is the highlight of our celebrations. Our 1st will play against the MCC. The last occasion we played MCC was in 1960 in celebration of our Centenary. David Ward is the appointed match Manager for the MCC side and has promised to bring along a side of 'star quality'. The day will also commemorate the OFFICIAL opening of the Pavilion. To undertake the opening we have the pleasure of welcoming Alec Stewart who will perform this ceremony with David Ward.

The match itself will commence at 11am. A superb lunch and tea will be available in the Marquee. We are 'pitching' the event to VP's, Members, locals and businesses. The cost of a table of 10 is £500 inclusive of catering. Please contact me with your reservations. ianchilds@ryman.co.uk 07860 33000. Again try to coordinate tables of 10 please.

This event is our HIGHLIGHT in our celebrations. Please try to support either personally or via your business. The event will offer a great platform for client entertainment. Again we need to aim at selling a min 20 tables
