'Twas quite a few nights before Christmas, when all through the house not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. The stockings were hung by the chimney with care; in hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while the 100 + Hallam volunteers were down at Bar Phoenix getting a bit off their heads. If you don’t know what I’m talking about then you missed out on quite a good night and for those of you that could make it then you know I’m talking about the Volunteers' Christmas Party that took place on Monday 15th of December.
Free Pounded tickets were on offer for the first 100 volunteers to turn up. This as well as the chance to take part in some general holiday festivities resulted in a very high turnout at the event. There was a great selection of games, a raffle and a buffet. On top of all that the West Street Wobble prizes were also handed out so it was definitely a night of receiving for a lucky few.
The first ever issue of the new “Volunteer Life” magazine was also launched on the night. Vickie Crofts, Publicity Officer and editor of Volunteer Life, had the night off so Rik Measures, a member of the Publicity Team had to stand in. Based on the fact that people were requesting copies directly after his speech, I can report he did a great job! The party ended on a high note and those who weren’t fully satisfied went on to Pounded directly after to carry on partying and get more than their fill!
