And lastly; Thank you…
Of course the Gala could not of proceeded without the collective help of an army of volunteers. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes to enable such an evening to take place so a huge thank you to Ian Proud, Dave Gill, Laura Mack and the cohort of Committee members, volunteer Officials and volunteer parents. Your help was invaluable. Plus; great to see the DASC President Jane Teague; who was able to make attendance and speak at the opening. Hope you enjoyed the evening Jane!
