Entertaining for SCAN

AT the end of The Entertainers’ show for SCAN animal charity in Los Arcos gardens (Pedreguer) on Thursday June 15, Chris and Adele, the event organisers and comperes for SCAN, concluded “Wow, that was fabulous!”, and it truly had been.

The ‘wows’ started from the moment the audience arrived, to learn that The Entertainers’ performance was to be filmed for UK TV, Channel 5’s 2023 series of Bargain Loving Brits in the Sun.

A second ‘wow’ came when The Entertainers opened their performance with The Greatest Show - as it certainly was to be. A full house of some 130 people had set up their decorated tables in the garden as the sun set, enjoying rendition of Shallow, Proud Mary, Dancing Queen, Summer of 69, a Beatles Medley, It’s Raining Men and Amarillo, among other major classics.

When Adele announced that €2,100 had been raised, it was certainly the biggest wow of a wonderful evening. SCAN rely on donations in order to look after the animals, for further information visit www.scancostablan ca.com.

This was the first Javea Green Bowls Club (JGBC) Open Competition to be held at Calpe Bowling Club, so a full eight rinks were in full swing.
