Ruthin 90th Birthday Celebration
Rally - 28th April - 2nd May 2010
Below are a selection of
photos from our fabulous 5 day birthday meet. Thanks to
everyone for helping, joining in the fun and making this such a fabulous meet,
where
over 100 units enjoyed the fun.



We had three marquees this weekend,
which were packed to overflowing. Here are some
of us building them.



Our Club Chairman Keith Jackson and
wife Janet joined us this weekend, hopefully they enjoyed
our company as much as we enjoyed theirs. Below is a plaque they presented
to the DA to raise funds
showing all our Club badges from start to the present day. I dragged poor
Phil from C4U round every
single van one afternoon selling the raffle tickets, after asking if he had 10
minutes to spare. Below is the fabulous
plaque which nearly everyone on site wanted to win.


Our very lucky winner Martin being presented with his plaque.

We held our own 'street party' LSWLDA
style to help celebrate the Royal Wedding on the Friday.
What a spread, enjoyed by nearly everyone on site.

The Royal Ladies Camilla and Kate even called in to help us celebrate.




"Mum, I want to join in too!!" one of many lambs watching our festivities.




Fun in the marquees in the evening.

Relaxing on yet another sunny afternoon.

There were many flags flying this weekend, a small selection of which are shown below.





The on-site stream made a perfect
swimming pool for our younger members in the very hot weather
which Uncle Les had ordered for us.



Our very well attended coffee morning on Sunday morning.

Trust Bungle to find one of these!!!!!!

Some of the fabulous prizes on our raffle table, all with the theme of the 1920's.



Present and past Committee Members joining in the fun.


Our CCY members and parents held a fantastic carnival, all the games were played in the 1920's and recreated here, where they raised lots of much needed funds for our CCY and CCJ activities.


This was a water game enjoyed by many
in the 1920's. Les described what he wanted
and Jimmy made it for us. Well done Jimmy, you're a marvel, and it was
enjoyed by many.














Most of us dressed up in 1920's fashion
on Saturday evening, below are some of the
fabulous creations. Well done everyone.

Entertainer Gary James Martin joined us
on Saturday evening. He's never met an
audience like us!!!!!!!!!!




















Our younger members put on a fabulous
Charlston display, all taught by Auntie June
over the weekend. What stars!


Uncle Les set a Chairman's Challenge
for this weekend. Unfortunately some of us missed
it - however, here are some of the fabulous missing entries ......





Martin's kite almost made it into the air on Monday morning, here's him practicing

This is the intrepid young man whose
home made kite out of string, wood and paper beat our Chairman's
kite in the challenge. He gets to keep the trophy for a whole year.
Well done!!

Children's coffee morning

Our 90th member arriving on site who
was presented with a small plaque which can be
seen on the background of this page.

Poor victim having her face painted with moustache and other decorations - so she thinks!


Somebody left the empty cake box on my
cake, so friends took pity on me and clubbed together
to buy me this delicious cake!!
