A ROCK & Roll evening, organised by Malcolm Hitchinson from Westbury, will raise funds for the Wilts & Berks Canal Trust.
Malcolm, who is chair of the events committee said, “We are putting on this event because a number of people at the Finnegan’s Wake concert last year requested a Rock & roll night. So if dancin’, jivin’ or strollin’ is your thing, get your glad rags on for a great Rock n Roll Evening, with wonderful Rock n Roll band The Beat Cats.”
The event is presented by the local Melksham, Chippenham & Calne Branch of the Trust, and will be at Melksham Conservative Club SN12 6LE, on Saturday 19th September; doors open at 7.30pm for an 8.00pm start.
Tickets cost £8 and are available now from: Melksham Conservative Club, Melksham Tourist Information Centre, or by calling Richard on 07899 903344. Or they can be bought on the door on the night. A bar will be available in the hall and there is local parking behind the club. Entrance to the club is from the central car park at the rear which is accessed from Church Street SN12 6LS.
The Beat Cats are a traditional Rock n Roll band from the heart of Somerset, but with a modern twist.
“We are really looking forward to a fantastic evening courtesy of the excellent Beat Cats. We also have Roger Dee’s Nostalgia Disco as a supporting act so there is no reason to stop dancing!” said WBCT volunteer Peter Henden.
All profits raised will go towards the work of the Wilts & Berks Canal. For more information visit www.melkshamwaterway. org.uk
