Arenal Deportiva Lodge bring Back the Roaring 20’s

Absolutely Fabulous!

Sums up the superb evening held by Arenal Deportiva lodge on Tuesday the 14^th February. With the Gentlemen dressed in “Sharp Suits” and the Ladies gorgeously attired in ‘Flapper” dresses, Brother Satari’s restaurant in Moraira was transported back to the Roaring 20’s in fine style.  The food, drinks and entertainment were all outstanding, and with the restaurant decorated beautifully, a wonderful party atmosphere ensured everyone had a marvellous evening and danced the night away.  An excellent prize draw produced a profit of over 600€, and the overall profit for a local Autistic Children’s society, which had been nominated by R.W. Bro Michael Shilan and his wife Muriel, exceeded 720€.

A huge thank you must go to all involved in organizing the event, but in particular W. Bro Ray Guise – Smith and his wife Coral and son Oliver, W. Bro Malcolm March and Margaret and the Officers of Arenal Deportiva Lodge No65.

A special New Year celebration party organised by the Worshipful Master of Arenal Deportiva Lodge No 65. W. Bro Peter Johnson, and his wife Florence Li Fung Ha attracted almost 80 brethren, partners and friends to celebrate the Chinese New Year, this year being the year of the Rabbit. The party was at Sabores II restaurant in Moraira and was held on the last day of the Chinese New Year festivities which is traditionally known as “everyone’s birthday”.
