Tickets for the Mayor of Eastbourne’s Dinner and Dance are selling fast. Book now to avoid disappointment! It promises to be a fantastic evening with a three course dinner followed by dancing and a tango cabaret. What could make it a more enjoyable evening is knowing that all proceeds go to the Mayor’s chosen charity, C.R.Y (Cardiac Risk in the Young). The event will take place on Friday 17th March, 7.00 for 7.30p.m., in the Floral Hall, Winter Garden.
The Worshipful the Mayor of Eastbourne, Councillor Graham Marsden, says, “I am aiming to raise sufficient money to purchase an ECG machine to be placed in a local surgery or wherever it could be used regularly. There is still time to buy either an individual ticket or to come with a party of friends. I look forward to meeting you on the 17th March.”
Shades Bistro is kindly sponsoring the eleven piece band, “Pzazz”, for after-dinner dancing. Tango formation team “Los Tangueros” will give a demonstration at 8.45pm and a spectacular performance later in the evening.
Fantastic raffle prizes include a night for two at the top class Bonnington Hotel in London, dinner for two in the Garden Restaurant at the Grand Hotel, Family Membership for a year at Devonshire Park Lawn Tennis Club, and ‘Keeper for the Day’ at Drusillas Park.

CRY was chosen as this year’s Mayoral charity, not only because of its importance in raising awareness of this type of sudden death and providing support for grieving families, but also because a young Cavendish School student, known to the Mayor during his teaching career, died suddenly.
