THERE'S an opportunity for a fun night out at the races in Hatherleigh this month, courtesy of the town's Rotary Club.

A dog racing night is due to be staged by the club at the new community centre in Hatherleigh on Saturday, March 20. Tables for six are available at £18 each, to include cheese and a bottle of wine, or individuals are welcome at £3 per person. Tables can be made up on the night.

Participants are welcome to 'buy a dog' before the night for £10 — with the opportunity of winning £40 on race night. The evening begins at 7pm for a racing start at 7.30pm. To book a table, call Alan Barkwill on 01409 241976 or email [email protected]">[email protected]
