Thank you Barbieb for starting this for us.

Yes, we had a wonderful night and so many people to thank:

Firstly our thanks go to John and Maureen Swayne who organised this darts competition in memory of their nephew who tragically died at a young age in a road traffic accident. We are eternally grateful and the Association cannot thank John and Maureen enough for all their hard work in organising the event, finding sponsors for the event and prizes for the raffle. They work tirelessly and without expecting any thanks and as such we cannot thank them enough and praise them for their enthusiasm and charitable spirit.

The sponsors for the event were as follows and we would like to thank them for their generosity and support:

Bilkar Construction
Canadian Import
FTC Tourism
Gümfa Ltd
Ileli Supermarket
Kensington Developments
Lapta Beledeyesi
Savyon Village
University of Karpisa

The event was held at Jessics Bar, Lapta (our thanks go to Mustafa for all his hard work) and was an outstanding success.

The winners of the Darts Competition were as follows:

Winner John Swayne 500tl + trophy
Second Erdinc Canbolat 300tl + trophy
Third Elmas Cocuk 100tl + trophy
Highest Checkout Selcuk Ulasti 50tl + trophy
Best Lady Player Debbie Brodie 100tl + trophy

The final amount raised at this event was an amazing 5,310.25 TL – this amount includes sponsorship money, entrance fees (49 entered), 5TL per meal sold (amounting to 235TL), the raffle, further donations on the day and lastly, but by no means least; John Swayne’s winning money of 500TL which he donated back to Tulips.

We would also like to say a huge thank you to 5 members of the KKDF (Darts Federation) who collectively purchased and donated a new wheelchair for KHYD/HTWCA/Tulips. The presentation of this wheelchair on the day was a complete surprise to Tulips and we were astounded at the generosity of the people who are listed below:

Hasan Avsanlı
Akın Aşıkcan
Osman Sunısoğlu
Halil Kara
Cem Kara

Our thanks go to all the sponsors, participants and those who came along to watch, have lunch and buy raffle tickets and of course John and Maureen.

Carole and Sue
