Humber 2010 Finale Luncheon

200 Years of Lifeboats at Spurn Point, Humber 2010 Finale Luncheon
Well as you may well know some of our members got tickets for the Luncheon, and to show our support and thanks to the crew.

 Thanks to the Humber lifeboat crew, the Luncheon went very well indeed,

we were made to feel welcome once again by the crew who spoke with us all one by one about the weekend and how we did it and if we enjoyed it, they enjoyed having us there.
One of the Crew has invited us to all go up in the summer for a barbecue, we will try and make this an event I am sure.

We made a donation from the club and bought a year of history thanks to all members that dipped in we raised 80 pounds.

I know also other members have bought years also making our total for the station 155.00 pounds not bad for a small club well-done guys.

 As you will see by the photos the Luncheon was packed out, Andy G7LRR, Bob  M0RWL, and John G6LNV,

 presented Superintendent Coxswain Dave Steenvoorden and the crew,

 

 with a thank, you letter and a framed photo with a little write-up on it as you can read.

This was put on display for all to see
It great day out maybe next time more will come to such events, by the way, Dave Steenvoorden and crew for the 200-year anniversary
along with their supporters raised over £65,000 for the station on the 200th anniversary.

Cheers
