Tombola
Lions Val Whitehead and Diane Cubitt have been running the Tombola stall for 10 years. It is held in the Market Place, Burgess Hill, several times during the year together with various summer and Christmas events as a fundraiser to compliment the funds of the club to help in the local community. The picture above shows the Tombola in action at the South Downs Garden Centre Fun Day in July 2011.
The stall contains a wide variety of ‘goodies' to win via a 20 pence ticket, as well as many bargains to purchase.
Most of the prizes are donated by club members and friends and the stall is always poplular with passers-by as they can be sure of a good choice if they win.
