Stratford Accordion Club

The 2007 Stratford Accordion Club Christmas party took place on December 18th. The evening started with Terry and Carol welcoming everyone. Don, the Club President, and John then gave us a duet of some Carols. Our guest player for the evening, Harry Hussey, played for a while and then the spectacular buffet was declared "open". Derek and Pearl called out the winning numbers for the raffle and the lucky winners were invited to choose their prizes. Harry then played requests from the floor and kept everyone entertained with his magnificent playing. After this, Len Dando gave us a few tunes, followed by Jovan Rnjak. Harry joined in at the end to give us a few final songs, then Terry thanked everyone for their support, especially the entertainers, and wished us all "A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" and a safe journey home.
