Fundraiser

 

Elli-b is hosting a fundraiser on behalf of the Youth Club and MacMillan Cancer on Thursday 26th March at the Marine Hotel in North Berwick.  Tickets are £25, which includes a 3 course meal and tea/coffee.  Tickets can be purchased individually, or if you would like to host a table, the tables are for 10 people and cost £250.  Tickets are available from the Youth Club or via the elli-b website – www.elli-b.com.  We hope that you can assist us in spreading the word about this event, and help make it as successful an event as possible.

 


Pitstop Café

 

We now have the staffing in place for the Pitstop Café – Edna Currie has been appointed as Café Supervisor, and Marion Hamilton has been appointed as Café Assistant.  Both women have a tremendous amount of experience in this field, having worked with McSense in Dalkeith in a similar working environment.  It was hoped that we would have the café opened by the end of February, but due to works requiring to be carried out in the café, this date has had to be put back to the end of March to allow the Council to carry out these works.
