B4 Blenheim Dinner at Halloween
Sixty B4 members and guests were treated to a wonderful evening of fine dining and entertainment in the saloon at Blenheim Palace on Wednesday 30th October. Our host, Blenheim CEO, Dominic Hare, welcomed guests with an engaging update on progress to date and plans for the future.
Our guest speaker, Cav. Diego Masciaga, formerly of The Waterside at Bray where he served as Director and General Manager for thirty years, spoke of the importance of customer service in all of our businesses.
Thank you to Tina Rosser for her stunning table centrepieces, to the support team at Blenheim for their first-class hospitality and to Emma Rogers for her help in co-ordinating the event.

“It doesn’t get much better as far as venues are concerned….really pretty spectacular and sometimes we forget just how lucky we are in Oxfordshire. Both Dominic and Diego gave great speeches. Thank you for letting me take one of the copies of his book. I have already got through quite a bit of it. It is a blueprint for all of us.”
