Members of Harpenden Circle were tickled pink when they held an ‘In the Pink’ evening to raise money for Breast Cancer Care. Forty Circlers and friends dressed in pink and took part in a pink food tasting and pink themed quiz.
The event, held on Tuesday 8th October, had Circlers tickling their taste buds with all tones of pink culinary delights, ranging from taramasalata to pink coloured porridge and golden syrup, and pink mashed potato. The pink themed quiz, written by Emma Taylor, Vice Chair covered some diverse topics with questions including ‘Who composed the theme tune to the film The Pink Panther? And ‘What is the real name of the artist ‘Pink’’. (Answers at the bottom). The charity Breast Cancer Care was so delighted with the event that they would like to cover the event in their marketing materials – great publicity for Ladies’ Circle.
Circle Chair, Mandy Gosling was thrilled with the success of the evening: “We had so much fun trying to guess the type of food and answer the questions, this kind of event is what Circle is all about – having fun, making new friends and raising money for good causes.” Everyone was tickled pink with the event raising £515.20 for Breast Cancer Care .

The newest members were presented with a pink rose by visiting guest Nicola Braden – Hertfordshire Area Chair, to celebrate their inauguration.
