Jester’s 10th anniversary party night shaping up
Mike Franklin
Just six days after the Jesters Children’s Fair and Family Day on Sunday
September 9th at the Diana Garden Resort Driving Range, it is the Jesters
Party Night for the adults at Jameson’s, the Irish Pub.
 Joe
Calzaghe Boxing gloves will be on auction.
Yes, Saturday 15th September is the Jesters Party Night kicking off at 6pm.
It will be a fun packed evening with plenty of entertainment featuring a
magician, comedian, an impersonator singer, DJ and live music. Early evening
will see the spectacular arrival of Erik Sorensen and Robert Johansson after
another grueling cycle ride to Trat and back. These guys are athletes to be
admired, having already raised 500,000 baht in sponsorship, about half as a
result of Neil Sandilands 50th Birthday party last weekend!
The annual Grand Raffle features Honda motorcycles as the star prizes - the
new Honda Air Blade, sponsored by Jameson’s, tops the list together with a
Honda Click donated by Mityon North Pattaya. Next up is a return 3-day,
2-night all inclusive trip Bangkok to Angkor Wat, plus many other high value
prizes. (See latest prize list).
The Jesters auction will offer a range of interesting and varied lots,
including sports memorabilia in motor racing, football, boxing, golf and
rugby. Two diamond rings, wine, antique items, children’s drawings and
handicrafts. (See current auction lot list)
This is the final event in the 2007 Jesters ‘Care for Kids’ Charity Drive,
our 10th Anniversary year and, we hope, a record breaking result. The
sponsors have done us proud; the Children’s Fair & Family Day will be the
best yet, so come along to Jameson’s on Saturday September 15th and make
this a Jesters Party Night to remember.
Two Arnold Palmer signed
photos will be on the auction block during
the Jesters Party Night.
