The night the Beatles played the club.
(Oct 2004).
Dusty archive footage of that memorable night when the Beatles played the Northern Cavern?
Or maybe the recent gig when tribute band the Beat Beatles raised the roof with a great evening's entertainment.

Big night for 200 Club. (Sep.2004)
|
After 9 years at the helm, Steve Redfern organised his final 200 Club draw night.
Steve is pictured receiving a 'thank you' from president Wendy McDowall,
in the form of an addition to his garden jungle.
As ever the evening was an enjoyable one,
incorporating live entertainment from Craig 'I don't just do Buddy Holly' Snaylam,
and a fine buffet from Glen and his Northern Catering crew.

|
Top prize was won by former member of staff Sue Kingsford.
Roy Blagden popped the champagne corks after he picked up runner-up spot and this £1000 cheque.

Marquee Week, Summer Ball. (Jun.2004)
|
As usual, Wendy McDowall worked her little cotton socks off
(but didn't wear them with that posh shiny red ball gown)
to ensure that the Summer Ball went with a swing.
Around 230 people danced the night away to DJ Gary and some great live music from the Wickermen.

Marquee Week, Sports Celebrity Dinner. (Jun.2004)
|
England's Euro 2004 defeat in Portugal provided the only sour taste as around
170 members and guests enjoyed an otherwise successful Sports Dinner in the marquee.
Attention then turned from the big screen to guest speakers Joey Jones and Steve Kindon
(pictured with club member Neilan Symondson),
who provided the main entertainment of the evening with tales of their footballing careers.
