Remembrance
weekend was a
busy time for
RBL Nerja. Over
100 people
attended our
Poppy Ball on
Friday
November 9.
They enjoyed a
wonderful
evening with
dinner, wine, entertainment and dancing. Then on Sunday
November 11, over 200 people came to our Remembrance Day
ceremony as we paid tribute to those who lost their lives in
past conflicts particularly remembering those lost during
World War One. This was followed by lunch at the Caves
restaurant. The weekend’s events raised a further €1,000 plus.
Many thanks to all those who participated in and generously
supported these events.
