Successful Christmas Market

Successful Christmas MarketRotary E-Club Porches International is pleased to report on the success of their annual Christmas Market held 21-22 November at Galeria Arte Algarve in Lagoa.

A total of € 3,885 was raised to finalise a Club project to purchase an electric forklift truck for the Portimão Food Bank warehouse.

Successful Christmas Market at Galeria Arte AlgarveOn Saturday, we enjoyed entertainment ‘interludes’ from singer/musician Richard Bassett and dance group Dancenema, under the direction of Tiffanie Jorge. Each day, a uniquely Scandinavian Santa presented gifts to children from local associations. 

We want to give special thanks to hosts Galeria Arte Algarve and their staff who worked tirelessly for the success of the market.
Thanks also to Algarve distributor Sovipral for donating several barrels of Warsteiner beer to be sold to benefit the project.

What a wonderful group of vendors, helping to spread the holiday cheer and create a terrific Christmas atmosphere. And, also let's be sure everyone knows how much we appreciate the support from the public.

See you all next year; we're already working on exciting new plans.
