Harwood Vegas Night


Harwood Vegas Night - 8th October 2011

Our latest Vegas Night was held at Harwood Golf Club on a rainy Saturday night. After spending a while deciding where each table should be positioned, we got cracking and were ready with a roulette wheel, 2 poker tables, 3 blackjack tables and some other smaller games of chance, comfortably ahead of the scheduled start time.

Unfortunately the expected crowd of over 50 people did not materialise, and only about 25 people were present in the end, due to the competing attractions (?) of Strictly Come Dancing and the X Factor.

We Lions didn't let the smaller number of people put us off, but reduced the number of tables in use, and concentrated on giving those people who attended a fantastic evening.

I shut down my poker table and sat with Lion Ray on the other poker table, playing in the first half of the evening, and running the table in the second half. The first half taught me that I must never go to a Casino and play Poker, as I would soon be bankrupt!

Everyone who attended seemed to enjoy themselves, as the photograph's at the side show. As is normal for our Vegas Nights, several millionaires were created on the evening, enabling them to bid for the auction prizes.

Thanks to all the Lions, their families and guests for being present.
