Lions Xmas Party and Devonport Cup Photos

The 2011 Lions Christmas party at President Rob's was a great success. We all sat on Santa's lap and got a pressy!


The 2012 Devonport Cup was also a wonderful event that we partook in early January. As part of our Lions commitment we always do the racegates at Spreyton on race dates. It supports our club membership fees, provides community visibility and manning the gate is an enjoyable social occasion. Devonport Cup was of course a major event and all available Lions were on board. Three gates were manned, top and bottom gates as well as a middle gate as some parking and marquees were in the middle of the racecourse this year.

Meeting in our new Shed

The last meeting on 12 January  was held in the new shed at Spreyton, and gave us all an opportunity to see how good it is. The meeting was a partner's night and was relatively informal. After the meeting Lion Hos showed us how the caravan could easily be driven into it as well.


Ample space for everything. Just need a few more shelves for the carpet rolls and this place will be spic and span!

Carols 2011

The Carols by Candlelight 2011 were blessed by beautiful weather again. As darkness fell and the battery operated candles were switched on, the Devonport community present (most of them I am sure!) savoured the magical atmosphere and joined in singing traditional Christmas carols with local talent.

Santa arrived in a horse-drawn carriage from Hurlfield Farm this year - see below!
