In response to queries as to the cost of attending the Masked Ball, I thought I'd give you all a heads up as to the commitments entered into by those organising this event.

This is a NOT FOR PROFIT event, being organised in order to give Fab members a great night out, and so the costs are based on hoping for a response of around 200 people who, as well as expressing an interest, actually end up PAYING.

The forecast of expenditure is against a possible total available budget of £4,000 (£20 per person, 200 people).

Marquee - £2,500

Buffet - £450

Toilets - £350

Generator - £320

Entertainment/Decoration/misc £380.

As you can see, there is no spare in this equation, and we are looking into a plan B (and C lol), depending on how many ACTUALLY pay, by downsizing the marquee etc.

The camping / bunkhouse costs are paid directly to the landowner, none of that is towards the event itself.

Bottom line... if you have expressed an interest, please support this event (and by that I mean, get your wallets out lol!), and if you haven't yet committed, then please stick your names down.

This event needs the support of Fab members for it to happen.
