DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER ~ SANDBACH ROUND TABLE
CELEBRATE 60 YEARS
Celebrating 60 years of Round Table fun and
fellowship, members of Sandbach Round Table past and
present were joined by Tablers from all over the UK
and Europe to join in their party at the Town Hall
on Friday.
Organiser of the event, Past Chairman of the
Table, Anthony Stubbs said “We could not have wished
for a better turn out for what is a landmark
birthday in an exciting organisation”
The event, held every five years, marked a
significant date in the Table’s history. With more
than 140 Tablers, past and present with their guests
helped wish the Table a very happy birthday.
Toasting the Table, President and Past Chairman
of Sandbach Round Table Richard Brown provided the
guests with a potted history of the Table; current
Chairman Peter Henderson continued the story and
thanked all the guests for attending from as far
away as Paris and
Newtownabbey
near Belfast. Wrapping up the speeches, National
President of RTBI Peter Manley congratulated the
Table on a splendid Charter event commenting that it
had been the best event he had been privileged to
attend as National President of the organisation.
Tabler Stubbs went on to thank the guest speaker
who appeared at short notice following unfortunate
circumstances of previously booked speakers who
could not attend the function. He said, “Our
comedian this evening Ollie Simpson was fantastic.”
Following the event on Friday, the Tablers
continued to entertain their visitors for the rest
of the weekend and attended the Area 22 Ladies Night
the following evening where more than 100 Tablers
and their partners gathered at a hotel near
Manchester Airport for this annual event.
If that was not enough, most of the Tablers who
had been involved in the previous two events then
met the volunteers who erect the Christmas lights in
the Town early on Sunday morning to make sure these
were up and ready for the official lights switch on
ceremony to be held on Saturday 29th
November.
Commenting on the Charter event, Chairman of
Sandbach Round Table, Peter Henderson said “this has
been a fantastic weekend! Only in Table could you
have so much fun with so many people from such far
flung places! Table has worked hard to produce this
memorable weekend and I thank all those who have
been involved.”
President of Table, Richard Brown said, “I was very
proud to represent our Table at this auspicious
occasion and glad to see that all who attended had a
great time”
Past members of the Table were represented by
members of 41 Club where the oldest member and Past
Chairman was John Pritchard who was Chairman in
1958-59. With a final word on the Charter he said,
“It is always an enjoyable occasion but this was a
very special. We are all proud to see that Sandbach
Table is thriving and it was particularly
pleasurable to see two new members join us this
evening. One person who is missing this evening is
Past Chairman Charles Lowe (1953-54) who is in
hospital – we wish him a speedy recovery and look
forward to seeing him soon”
To celebrate 60 years of Tabling, the members have a
number of events lined up for this year. Recently
they successfully cycled more than 500 miles raising
thousands of pounds for Sandbach Talking Newspapers,
and have also organised a successful beer festival.
The Table are currently gearing up for their annual
Santa Float trips around the Town.
