events
The society organises three main events every year with the aim of raising as much money for charity as possible. These events are:
- The Burns Supper
- The Summer Ceilidh
- The St Andrew's Ball
Note all of our events are now no smoking.
Treasure Hunt
Our annual treasure hunt will be held in November on a date to be confirmed. Again please keep an eye on the website for the exact details. Always a great day out for the whole family!
St Andrews Ball
As always the St Andrews
kids ceilidh will take place the day following the ball, Friday 4th
December. Tickets for the kids event will be sold on the same
day as the ball tickets. Cost is 2 OMR per child with the
accompanying adult getting to go along for free! Tickets for
this event are limited so don't forget them.
Exact details to be
confirmed nearer the time, but as always, keep an eye on the
website. Please be aware that we are doing everything within our power to
keep the costs of our functions down. We have noticed increases in
all areas involved in organizing our functions, but we are
constantly negotiating with the hotel and suppliers to minimize the
effects of this on our ticket prices. Updated
