Black Tie and Party Games!

Members of Ludlow Rotary Club have a reputation for their fundraising activities in aid of local, national and international charities. However that is only one aspect of their activities. A lively social life is the other with regular fortnightly meals at The Feathers (smart casual) and occasional visits to pubs and inns in and around Ludlow – very casual – in the Club’s programme.  Sometimes a dinner to mark a special occasion – black tie – is the order of the day. But even those gatherings lack much in the way of formality as these pictures taken at this year’s Christmas Dinner on December 15th show.

A traditional meal of turkey with all the trimmings, with fish or a vegetarian dish as alternatives, followed by a choice of seasonal puddings, cheese and coffee was on the menu.

Afterwards members entered into the spirit of the season with some light hearted parlour games. So in case you’re left wondering, the photo of some of the members with plates on their heads was one of these, and not some weird initiation rite. Ludlow Rotary quite definitely does not go in for such things – though admittedly the mistake could easily be made. The photo does look just a bit weird!
