2009 for the Hall started on 6th January with a production of The Snow Queen. With a cast of four, the company from Hampshire kept us all entertained and despite the inclement weather it was well attended. The ‘Night Out’ scheme supported by the Arts Council of Wales (ACW) and Flintshire County Council (FCC) assisted financially.
Weather for the Car Boot Sale on May 25th, held on the Meadow, was very good which makes for a successful event. Profits were in excess of £1,000.

June 2010 - The Friends of Llanasa raised £5367.14 towards the Help for Heroes campaign through a series of fundraising events, culminating in a full village hall supper evening and entertainment. Many thanks to all those who gave up their time in support of such a worthy cause.
The Hall trustees were recently awarded £4,280.10 by Flintshire Local Voluntary Council (FLVC) from the Community Action Partnership Fund. This was to replace the plastic guttering and down-pipes with cast iron – this work has been carried out by local tradesmen and looks really good. The rest of the money is for the re-painting of the outside woodwork which will commence in the autumn, again we are using local professionals.
The Woman’s Institute, Mother’s Union, Guides, Rangers, Brownies, Rainbows, Sunday school and Care Workers support the hall by holding regular meetings throughout the year.
The hall is also hired for private functions – why not hold yours here?
Plans are being made for a Festival of St. David next March 6th (a bit early you may think!) Nevertheless it will be a very full programme using local artists. A joint effort between the Hall and the ParishChurch with support & funding by Cadwen Clwyd.
The new Ladies group ‘Friends of Llanasa’ held a Strawberry Tea on the 11th July in the hall. A total of £570.00 was raised in aid of HM Stanley Stroke Rehabilitation Unit at St. Asaph. 40lbs of strawberries, over a gallon of cream and dozens of fresh home made fruit scones were consumed. Wow! Enquiries to join the group 01745 571652
The 25th July was another event supported by ACW & FCC ‘Night Out’ scheme. Tony Jacobs presented to us ‘The Swing Cabaret Trio’, with Jim Barry & Sue Greenway who entertained us with hit songs and music from Cole Porter, Bing, Sinatra, and Ella to name but a few. What professionals! A superb evening was had by all.
Friday the 4th September, Paul Parry is talking on local history which covers the Parish of Llanasa – entrance is £2 to include tea/coffee and biscuits. Any questions will be invited.
A Treasure Hunt, BBQ and Quiz held on June 28th was a joint effort between the Village Hall and the ParishChurch and enjoyed by almost 100 people.
Not originally organised to be a fund-raiser but as a social event, it gave us a profit of £228 each. Requests were received for another similar event to take place, so watch out for notices! Thank you to Llanasa Parish Council who gave us a £50 donation towards this.
With the Craft, Food and Gift Fayres again in April, May, June & July, our thanks go to the organisers and supporters, these Fayres are well attended and proving to be a good source of income. Next Fayres: August 22nd, September 26th, October 24th, November 21st and December 12th 10 am – 3.30pm. Your support would be welcome.
