Another fun-filled night was hosted by the Lighthouse
Club of Pattaya for this month’s charity networking event held at the Zulu
Bar in the Centara Grand Mirage & Spa on Friday the 1st of April.
Their events seem to be going from strength to strength
with again over three hundred people in attendance, from the real estate
sector, corporations from the Eastern Seaboard, small local business owners
and those who just wanted to attend a fun night out and do their bit to help
the Melissa Cosgrove Children’s Foundation.
Heights Holding, a well established property developer,
was one of the evening’s sponsors along with Centara. Guy Van Harten from
Heights Holding made a huge impact on everybody by having masks of himself
with his trademark thick rimmed glasses passed around the Zulu bar. The
effect was that Guy was doing some serious networking and could be seen all
over the room.
The staff of Centara kept everybody’s glasses topped up
and the food was exceptional, especially the roast beef sandwiches.
As ever, many familiar faces were there and the ladies
were looking stunning, posing for the photographers and many of them looking
into the PMTV camera and stating how much they love PMTV.
There was also a charity raffle with a variety of prizes
which was dealt with very efficiently by the MC Mark Rogers. And although
the free drinks were meant to stop at 8:30 p.m. - Heights Holdings put more
money in the kitty to allow the ‘networkers’ another 30 minutes of free
drinking.
Actually the party continued on after 9 p.m. with
discounted wine, beer and music from DJ Ferris B.
So another great night, new friends and over 100,000 baht
raised for charity. You should come along to the next one, you don’t have to
be a member or even in business. It will be held at the Marriott Resort and
Spa on Friday the 6th of May and on the next day, from 2 p.m. until 7 p.m.,
the Lighthouse Club will hold their first ever family day at Pinnacle Resort
& Spa. This promises to be another fun event, this time geared towards
children, which in turn will help disadvantaged children in our community.
