Belfast Prepares For The Orange Oscars!

11 November 2005

THE Oscars are coming to Belfast…… the Orange Oscars that is!

The first ever Orange Awards will be staged on Saturday 19 November at the Shankill Road Spectrum Centre to reward those Orange lodges and individual Orangemen judged to have made an outstanding contribution towards promoting the Orange Order and its aims.

The six award categories include best fundraising lodge, best banner, and the lodge and member demonstrating the greatest community involvement.

The presentations will form part of a gala evening with musical contributions from the Flutes of Mourne Ensemble, the Dunloy Accordion Band, Culture Beat and the Conlig Fife and Drum Band. All proceeds from the event will go to the Togo Truck Appeal which is raising money to provide Orangemen in West Africa with a special vehicle to carry out social and medical work in the country's interior.

"These Orange Oscars have been designed specifically for those lodges and individuals who work so hard behind the scenes to further the Order's religious and cultural aims often with little recognition outside their own district", said Dr David Hume, the Order's Director of Services. "It promises to be a great evening with people from all over Ireland attending - I strongly recommend booking your tickets now!"

Tickets costing £5 for the Orange Awards Gala Evening can be obtained from the Order's headquarters at Schomberg House, 365 Cregagh Road, Belfast 6, or by telephone on 02890 701122.
