About the Event




The What

We Start by making a presentation to Peter, then, we get back together, talk about then and now. We eat, drink and say a collective thank you to Peter. Then we formally close the unit.

News just in, we now have an organising committee including currently, but not limited for too long I'm sure to:
Dave Prince, Ben Bellamy, John Warwick, Toby Clarke, Ian Shaw, Sean Ince, Andy Bond.

The Where

Hopefully many of you will start your Saturday doing the activities you used to do, or are still involved in. We will organise some of this, but hopefully some of you will organise and publicise your own sessions.
During the afternoon we will all meet up in Allestree for a presentation at 4.30. There will then be time for a quick change if you want before its off to Derby Rugby Club in Darley Abbey from 7pm onwards.

Itinerary

Morning - Activities
4.30pm  Presentation to Peter in Allestree
7.00pm -11.30pm Derby Rugby Club

This Includes

A barbeque or buffet depending on the weather.

We should be able to provide drinks both soft and alcoholic but how long the bar will be "free" for, will depend on the numbers attending.

A slide show (of course).

A time wall - bring your viking memorabilia and pin it up to see what we got done over those 40 years and in what order.

A formal closing ceremony, top secret at the moment, but let's burn out not fade away.

A goody bag including some unique and classic momentos to remember your evening and what little reaminans of your rapidly fading youth.

Where does my money go?
Firstly no-one who is organising is getting paid or taking a cut that wouldn't be right.

You will be getting the following:

The presentaton we make to Peter will be custom made.

Venue hire - we got a good price.

Food - looks like quality stuff, menu to follow when we confirm.

Drink  - again the more the merrier you will be.

Ticketing costs, depends how you pay but roughly 3 pounds per ticket.

The closing ceremony - the more people come the better this element becomes.

Goody bags - the more people who come the better these will be.

If as we hope there is a surplus, any monies left over will go to local charities and we will let you know who gets what and have some say in the process.

And Finally

We are limiting this to 200 hundred tickets at the moment. If the demand is there we will try and accomodate as many as we can, but no promises. There probably won't be another one of these, so book early to avoid dissapointment.
