MEMORIES FROM 2021
The sun shone on local Lions and their 500 guests on Sunday 15th August when they organised their annual Summer Funfest at Yateley Manor School.
It was a fun packed day for people with disabilities, their families and helpers.
There was music dancing and fun
for people of all ages and abilities
Giant Slides
And Lots of Sideshows
Bouncy Castles
Roundabouts
Steam Trains
Eighty Lions and volunteers from Aldershot, Farnborough, Fleet, Hart, Hook & Odiham. Loddon Valley and Yateley Lions Clubs ran the event and they had all contributed to the cost too as it was free for their guests. Attendees came from the local area and as far afield as - Winchester, Woking, Staines, Reading, West Byfleet, Sunbury, Ashford (Middlesex), Newbury, Bracknell, Shepperton, Alton, Chertsey and Elstree. They all had a great time and told the Lions so on the day and on social media afterwards. One said "It can be difficult going out to crowded places and it's not easy all going out together so the Funfest is brilliant".
Lion David Styler, Chairman of the organising team, said "It has been a very difficult year for everyone, so we were so pleased to be able to hold the Lions Family Fun Day event this year. Just to see the smiles on the children's faces shows how much this day was needed by these wonderful families."
Lion David also gave big thanks to Yateley Manor School for letting the Lions host the event there as well as to all the Lions and volunteers. The Lions all went home with big smiles on their faces too, if a little weary because it was a long day for them!
