Senior citizens get menu shock ! !

The Lions Senior Citizens Annual Lunch had a very unusual first course provided by the staff from Wetherby Health Centre!! It was called a ‘Pfizer Booster’ and a large number of the lunch guests took advantage of the vaccination to provide further protection against COVID.

Normal service quickly returned with a very appetising second course of chicken ‘lionaise’ with baked potato accompanied by wine, beer and soft drinks. This was followed by treacle tart and ice cream and the meal finished off with teas and coffees.

Our chefs for the day, Cllr Alan Lamb (Exec), Cllr Norma Harrington and Cllr Linda Richards

Three games of bingo with the Mayor of Wetherby, Neil O’Byrne, calling the numbers had some very happy guests collecting handsome boxes of chocolates.

The guests were then escorted to the school hall where they were wonderfully entertained by Tom Woodhead who provided singalong and dance music. The raffle prize was a wonderful food hamper provided by Morrisons community champions.

Our two police community support officers helped with serving food instead of summons and kept everyone in order!! Thank you!

As guests were leaving, they were all presented with an Easter egg! A great time was had by all!
