Wine Tasting - 12th November 2004
As the next event in fund raising for the Brook House Cricket pavilion, the wine tasting was a great success. £348 was raised and a jolly time was had by all. Alan Jenkins of "The Wine Store" in Haywards Heath (www.winestoreltd.com) presided over the highly competitive event. However, the overwhelming winners on the night was the HayBrowneDowne partnership who are clearly far too familiar with the contents of many wine bottles for their own good!

The fund-raising is continuing with various grant opportunities being pursued.
