RL Tuesday Social Morning
Our Social Morning will meet this week from 9.30-12 noon in Baker Finch Room at Arabian Ranches Golf Club. Please note the programme starts at 10.30 am.
26 November 2019: Andreea Stefanescu
The School of Manners
Working with the Royal Families for years, she will now bring the Dutchess Effect Quiz to Ranches Ladies. Let’s find out how much we know about hostessing, dining, sitting etc and if we can rival the dutchesses from the British Royal Family at least in the knowledge of etiquette.
Learn more about Andreea’s work on her website at: www.theschoolofmanners.com
Last Week’s Programme
The Festive Bazaar was last Tuesday and was a triumph. Thank you to Hayet, her team of helpers, all our wonderful stallholders and the generous attendees who came in their droves to support Ranches Ladies and to celebrate the state of the festive season with us.
We had a full house of contributors to the Bazaar including our own Art Circle leader Elizabeth Bruce, the RL Quilters, Oasis Fashion, UOwnCalmness, Joanna Low, Tamara Noori, Anna D, Fashion Rebel, RockNStyle and KumKum Ramchandani to name but a few. See our Festive Bazaar page on http://www.arabianranchesladies.com and our events page on FB to see their profiles and pictures from the day itself.
You can see this month’s Circles Calendar and details of all our circles on our website http://www.arabianranchesladies.com.

Membership
It costs 55Dhs for RL members and 65dhs for guests to attend the Tuesday Social Mornings which reimburses AR Golf Club for the use of the room and the refreshments. Please bring the exact money in a labelled envelope, if you can, which will really help us.
We now also have a new option, the 6 week pre-payment card. These can be purchased for 330dhs and will allow you to attend the RL social morning on 6 occasions without the need to hunt for your entrance fee.
The ATM is now back at the golf club.

RL Requests
RL is run entirely by volunteers and we rely on your kindness to give a few hours of your time each week to assist the Committee and keep Ranches Ladies running. We are currently looking for deputies to act as assistants to Jackie (Circles Coordinator), Anne (our treasurer) and to update the website with Sara (Webteam). The easiest way you can help is to volunteer as one of our Meet and Greet ladies if you have a little time once a month.
Please speak to Julia on ranches.ladies@gmail.com for more information about being a meet and greet lady or talk to any of the committee if you think you can help in any other way.
Important Info
Please remember, you need to be a current member of Ranches Ladies to join any of our Circles, attend our trips or claim your discounts. If you know anyone who would like to join Ranches Ladies please bring them on a Tuesday morning and see our website How To Join Our Membership
