Squirrel Newsletter number 1
The Squirrel
Bispham Road
Hi and welcome to the first Squirrel News Letter, hopefully the first of many.
My vision for The Squirrel Pub is to bring it back to being the heart of the community. To make The Squirrel the perfect home from home.
I want to help support the local community and local charities but I understand that I can't achieve this by myself, so would like to get a social committee together to help with this mammoth task.
The Squirrel already has a great base of locals. So, if you have any ideas or suggestions of what you would like to see or charities you think we could help, then please let us know by using the suggestion box.
Cheers
Flick (landlady)

Squirrel News Letter No 1 Feb 12
To succeed with our aspirations for a better Squirrel Pub ....
The more helpers we have on the social committee, the easier it will be plus the programme of events will be bigger and better. It is anticipated that the committee will be a joint effort , so please do not be put off joining us, as a weekly commitment will not be expected. Hopefully , there will be enough members to share the workload. It should be fun and an opportunity to making new friends.
If you are interested to find out more, please come along for a friendly chat on
Monday 5th March at 7 pm.
We would love to hear your thoughts and ideas on what would be good at The Squirrel for both ourselves but also the community.
A free raffle ticket to enter a prize draw will be given to all who attend this informal get-together. The prize being a meal for 2 — kindly donated by Flick.
If you would like to find out more before attending, or would like to be involved but cannot make the meeting, speak to Flick or 'phone 352198.
