The Beech Village Hall 100 Club was started in May 2016, and has now been running for 4 years. A membership subscription of £60 for the full year gets you 12 chances to win £200. Draws are usually held on the last Friday of each month, at the Social evening at the Village Hall, with the exception of December when the draw takes place at the Christmas party. However, at the time of writing (mid May 20) we are unable to hold our Social evenings due to the coronavirus restrictions, so the draw takes place live on our Facebook page.
Over the past 4 years the Club has generated over £5,000 for the Village Hall and this year this will be especially welcome as the Hall has been closed since March due to the coronavirus lockdown. So its usual sources of income, from hirings and social events, have completely ceased for the time being.
In the first 10 draws so far this year, we have had 9 different winners, 8 who won £200 each and one who won twice. We have two more to go, in May and the final one being June 2020. Here are some of our 2019/20 winners:
The Club is open to anyone over the age of 18 (except the Chair and Treasurer of Beech Village Hall Management Committee, the Administrator and their respective immediate families). The membership fee and prizes for the new Draw are the same as last year, that is:
You pay £60 for an annual membership commencing 31st July 2020, entitling your personal number to be entered in each of the 12 draws (equivalent to just £5 each month). You may join after this date at an amount reduced by £5 per month, ie £55 if you buy in August. The monthly prize is £200. And as has been shown, you can of course win more than once!! As only 100 membership tickets can be bought, you will see that the odds of winning £200 or more are high and over the past 2 years, over a quarter of members have become winners.
Membership is first offered to Beech Village residents, before membership offers are extended to others, so Beech Villagers should take early advantage of this to ensure they are 1 of the 100!
