Might be a bit quiet at the second one, that's the night Tinx & the crew have their fundraising Christmas Disco party for the doggies.

We heard that Rusty was still doing Anna's bar on the 23rd. Maybe someone could set us straight. Unfortunatley we won't be able to go to any of the events on the 23 rd because we will be in Antalya. I know a lot of others will be as well. I would be supporting Andy at Mimosa. No doubt as it is a genuine charity night for a good cause.

The Monthly Disco,s are continuing during his abscence as is the one for the 23rd Dec which I understand is nearly sold out.

Nearly sold out? How much are the tickets for this one Chris

Post by: anna-marie01 on November 23, 2009, 12:50:50 PM
The price is the same as always Scunner. 10 lira which includes the meal, I did put this on my original post. :)

Thank you, I consider myself reprimanded for not concentrating  :) To be honest, all these events on the same day are confusing the hell out of me - does the 10 lira go to the dogs home too?

That's OK, just don't do it again  :) I believe the owner of Anna bar is donating some money from the evening as previously.

Some. Ok.

Post by: anna-marie01 on November 23, 2009, 13:19:51 PM
I don't know exactly how much they donate as I'm not involved in that side of things. If you want to know the exact amount I suggest you ask KarenChris as they are involved in the organising. I do know that he is very generous and doesn't do it for his own gain, as I know he always buys tickets for himself and his family.

How much will be donated as you are involved with the organising

I'm really not that interested, a pound raised is a good thing. Just seems totally ludicrous to me that you have decided to go head to head with the official charity, competing with them to raise money for the very same cause!

Surely two seperate events on different nights could have doubled the money raised for these dogs????? Isn't that the important thing with fundraising events...

Just to give you an idea, he donated 45ytl Total last time, thats 1ytl from each meal, and the Efes is 4ytl.

The do for the 23rd has been organised for over 3 months now and it only become apparant that other do,s were organised for the same day only recently.

The donations from the bar have always been 1TL from every meal ticket sold which would appeared to have been satisfactory in the past, other amounts have been raised by the raffle of various prizes donated by numerous people.

Karen and Rusty the Cat were, and, still are, the original organisers for the discos. It was decided at the time of the first disco earlier in the year that, because other charities were fairly well supported by other means, as animal lovers it would be a good thing to support the animal sanctuary as they were being somewhat left out and this was arranged through Tinkerman & co and until recently was always well received.


Karen, Rusty,s Roadshow and myself are not in any competion with other charitable organisations nor, Do We Intend To Be and are sorry if it has been construed that that is the case.

The owner of Anna Bar asked for us to organise the Disco,s in the first instance and has also asked us to organise other events which we are continuing to do.
We will continue to donate monies raised from ticket sales for charitable causes that the owner of Anna Bar agrees to.
We are not in any position to dictate prices at the bar nor the amount donated from ticket sales.

The events have always been very well attended and it must be born in mind that not everyone buys a meal ticket so although the last event was fairly full not everyone purchased a meal ticket, this is quite often the case.

Hope this clarifies some of the points raised on this and other threads.

Chris

We organised our party after Derek declared on here he was no longer interested in doing so, he and Karen were asked if they would like to join us at Mimosa but turned it down for their own reasons.

I believe that somewhere in this or another thread on this forum that Derek explained that the do had already been organised for the 23rd at Anna Bar and that he was not in a position nor did he wish to change to another venue.

One has to admit that Anna Bar has got to be the place for disco,s in the area, the ambience, decor, disco lighting etc lends itself perfectly for disco,s and that is the reason Rusty,s Road Show and through Karens organisational skills will continue to be held there

Please browse through my previous post on the subject as I am sure that will clarify the issue.

This statement on 17/10 from Derek led us to beleive he wasn't doing another one - Now once again officialdom has taken over and I for one do not want a part in this. I will honour my promise to do the Halloween disco on 31st, but feel I dont want any part of official fund raising channels in the future.

The Party at Mimosa was announced 1st Nov.

The official fundraising do's for the Animal Shelter will be moved around several different bars as we go on, this is to be fair to all bar owners in the area, there are several venues that can hold a good party of this size including Mimosa, the set up is already there with lights, speakers, mikes, dance floor and plenty of room and good seating, good bar and the drinks will remain the same low prices as advertised on the board outside.

As Andy is running  the "Official" doggy do as they are registered with Fetav. Wouldn't it make more sense for everyone to attend The Mimosa? Especially as Derick has himself stated that he will not be coming back to Turkey?

I have just spoken with Derek on the telephone and the operative words on his quote were 'Officialdom and Official.
That is what he does not want to be a part of.

As mentioned, the Do,s at Anna Bar have all been arranged for some months previously as was the 23rd Dec and he is still going to be involved with them in the future from wherever he may be.

I do agree that there are many other excellent venues in the area but Derek,s & Karens do,s have all been arranged at the Anna Bar.

As mentioned previously, Karen & Rusty,s Road show are not competing with other charitable organisations.
   
Again as mentioned the prices at whatever venue remain the responsibility of the owner and like all places they do vary and it is up to the customer to pay what he feels is acceptable

I am confident that the party at the Mimosa will be a success as will all other events in other establishments that may be arranged in the future.

As previous owners of both Public Houses & Hotels in Britain, it was always great to have the support of our "locals".
'Anna Bar is our Local in Calis' and if we can support them in the same vein and also help others to benefit from the owners donations to whatever cause we shall be very pleased.

Karen & Rusty,s Road Show will continue to be organised at Anna Bar  for the enjoyment of all that wish to attend
