The Banquet

We hold a Regimental banquet every year in the 'off season' for members and guests to socialise in convivial surroundings, with good food, good company, music and dancing. The banquet gives us the opportunity to look back on the past season and ahead to what is to come. It also gives us the chance to dress up a little in our 'posh' outfits if we like. An important feature is the presentation of awards for achievement and long service.
