Day at the Races

[pitway]

There is an outing planned for Sunday 28th May for a day at the Races in Niort, entry to the couse is free and a Coach will take you there and bring you back.  All the betting instuctions have been translated into English to help you have an enjoyable day, there is a Bar and Restaurant on the Course. This is the 2nd year for this event and last year was a great success and a sunny day out to boot, there are a number of grassy area's that you can have a pinic on.  The Coach leaves from the local Bar, La Coussotte, in St Martin des Fountaines at 12.30, (About 13km from Fontenay le Comte) it is organised by a local French couple, Pierre Alain and Noelle ( Tel: 0251 00 12 18) There is a small charge of 5 - 8 euros, to cover the Coach hire, the more people going the cheaper the Coach per head,  for thoses who do not feel confident enough to speak to Pierre Alain or Noelle then there is another number that you can call to reserve you place.  Tim (0251 876 899)
