Gin Night

The Friends of Cople Church

We are pleased to announce that the much-touted Gin Event will finally take place on Saturday 27^th November in the Village Hall at 7:00pm.

The ticket price is £15, for which you will get:

A Gin glass to take away – so we do not have to do any washing up!

A token for 1 Gin or 2 soft drinks.

Food (pate, cheese, cold meats, bread, fruit). Feel free to bring crisps, etc.

Tonics, ice, and additions (lime, lemon, etc.).

A table quiz.

Philla will serenade you.

Further gin tokens can be purchased at £10 for 3 or £4 for 1 – there will be many different gins to try.

Seating will be communal, so there is no need to be part of or make up a party.

Plus! Win the coveted Cople Flavoured Gin Trophy!

There will be a competition to identify the best flavoured gin made by yourselves. Entry is free, simply requiring a 25ml bottle of your gin, just showing the flavour (sloe, blackberry, orange, rhubarb, strawberry, chilli, etc.) You can enter more than one flavour.

The cost of being a judge is £10 payable on the night – you will have to taste the gins (an onerous task) and identify your top 3. The voting mechanism will be explained on the night.

There will be a bar selling wine, beer, cider, and soft drinks if you need a break from gin or it is not you tipple of choice.

There will be a raffle, so prize donations will be gratefully received, and at the end of the evening part used bottles of gin will be auctioned.

The Friends of Cople Church

The Friends raise money for the upkeep of the historic Grade 1 listed All Saints Church in Cople and many of you will have attended events we have run – safari supper, barn dance, pantomimes, talks, quizzes, etc.

The fund-raising committee do all the organising, but often we are short of helpers on the night to serve food or drink, be on the door to check tickets etc., or simply help set up and clear up.

So, we are looking for volunteers to help at events. The benefit of doing this is that helpers get free entry – you can still enjoy the event and eat and drink. If you are new to the village, it is a great way to meet people.

So, if you wish to get involved in this way please contact:
