BONFIRE NIGHT LAUNCH PARTY
(in aid of Bellagio Time, Time for Children Promise)
Saturday,
5th November, 2006
The Annual VIP Firework Extravaganza was held in Cheshire on Bonfire Night. The event was attended by a host of stars from music, sports and television, as well as our business associates and sponsors, together with representatives of those charities who we are pleased to have been able to help during 2006.
As the large bonfire burned brightly, local guitar wizard Luke Machin
played his electric guitar live as the firework display; especially choreographed
to accompany him, lit up the sky above our heads. The second firework
display, equally impressive, was synchronised to an Earth Wind and Fire
pre-recorded mix. On a cold autumnal evening, the busy barbeque offered
a very welcome feast of hamburgers and hotdogs.
We were very honoured to have so many celebrities on hand to handout
the many raffle prizes, which, in addition to Bellagio timepieces included
very kind donations from MBI Inc and MBN Promotions.
The entertainment commenced after the raffle, and the bar staff were
kept busy as the guests were thrilled to listen to, and join in with
Jason Beharie; Shaun Walsh; Andy Whyment; Debbie Chapman; and Richard
Fleeshman. Following the set pieces, the stage was open for a jamming
session that continued until the wee small hours.
Hello! magazine covered the event, with the fee being paid directly to the
Promise. The photographs taken on the evening will be appearing on this
website very soon.
Whilst increasing the awareness of the Bellagio Time, Time for Children
Promise, its aims and objectives, we were very proud to have raised £7,790
from this event. All monies raised will be channelled into diamond timepieces
for donation to children’s Charities throughout 2007.
Through the auction of these timepieces, we are confident that we can improve on the £140,000+ which we have enabled a host of children’s charities to raise throughout 2006.
