SOCIAL EVENTS
Now that the pandemic is over...
...we're back to socialising in person, hurrah! Around 20 members celebrated being back together in June, with a party in the Fintry Hub, and the Committee is working on ideas for our next get-together, so keep checking back for information and subscribe to our blogs to be notified when things are happening.
And if you have any suggestions for social events, you can email the social committee: social@fintrydrama.org.uk
PAST EVENTS
SUMMER PARTY
Sunday 12th June, 2022
An afternoon get-together in the recently-renovated Fintry Hub, with May Anderson once again kindly putting her culinary skills front and centre....before breaking out the flute for a few musical numbers alongside Andy Barr on his trusty guitar!
BURNS QUIZ NIGHT
Saturday 18th January, 2020
Not just a quiz, expertly crafted and MC'd by David Smith - there was musical entertainment, poetry and a fully-interactive rendition of 'Tam O'Shanter', led beautifully by Jackie Smith. Throw in an address to the haggis by a knife-wielding Paul Anderson, tunes from Andy Barr and his guitar and great catering once again from May Anderson and you have yourself a Classic FADS Night! 🥳
TRIP TO ORKNEY
Thurs 16th to Sun 19th May, 2019
Nine FADS delegates, along with five Young Farmers and two canine tour mascots (Bess & Meg) took 'Mrs G' and the SSSYFC's play 'Strictly Sex Factor On Ice' up to Orkney, playing at Birsay Village Hall and the Orkney Theatre in Kirkwall.
The plays were one part of the trip, but the socialising with our friends from Birsay Drama Club was just as important and we enjoyed a fantastic weekend of Orcadian hospitality!
QUIZ NIGHT
Friday 29th March, 2019
10 teams participated in the first ever FADS Quiz Night, with the 'Strumming Numpties' emerging victorious (winning by half a point!!) By popular request, the questions will be easier next time! :)
PIZZA, PROSECCO & PICS PARTY!
Saturday 15th September, 2018
Following the success of our 40th Birthday Party in June, we took over Fintry Sports Club again for an evening of food, drinks and a presentation of more club photos from the archives, beautifully curated by David Smith and Ian Turner :)
BIG ASS WITH BIRSAY
Saturday 21st July, 2018
A truly epic social evening with our Orcadian friends from Birsay Drama Club, who travelled over 300 miles to perform two of their one-act plays in Fintry. Food, drink and a veritable buffet of party pieces, from Yoga Farts to clog dancing to showtunes. Oodles of fun!
FADS' 40TH BIRTHDAY PARTY!
Saturday 16th June, 2018
A fantastic evening at Fintry Sports Club, where 60 current and past members and friends looked back at the highlights of the last 40 years and danced the night away to the fabulous band, The Dodgy Characters.
