is everyone planning to camp down in devon for the north devon mini run?
if so, which nights are you planning on staying, and which site? do we need to start booking as in my experience sites book up pretty quickly for August Bank Holiday.

Last year only Andy and I camped from our club and Dave and Wendy did one day. So you need to help us encourage the others to have a bit more charitable umph inside them!!! We stayed at the main site last year and just turned up on the day..

We ought to re-iterate that this is a personal entry kinda event, not one that the club collates names for a stand/tickets. So if you want to go, you need to yank out the details from the mags and get your cheque off.

I have been reminded that the camp site we stayed at was called Braddicks and campers can turn up on the day. For anyone else interested in this, Suzy is right you need to organise it yourself -you can get entry forms from Terry at the North Devon Register on 01237 421592 or terry@smallcarsbighearts.wanadoo.co.uk.
This is a ticket only event and ALL funds raised go to the Childrens Hospice South West which is a really worthwhile charity. If you want to do it you need to apply asap as they do get fully booked -it is £15 each if you want to do one day, or £20 each for both, and they ask that you raise £30 min sponsorship.
This is really really good fun and is for a really good cause!

Just as soon as you can. They give priority to people who have done it before but if you book soon that should not make any difference.

should we not be doing a charity event to rase some cash for c.h.s.w? then we could hand over a cheque at the end of the run . this is what a lot of the other clubs do! any one got any ideas???

Could we not tie in the BBQ with a fundraiser? Maybe see if we can add £1 to each of the prices to go to the hospice maybe? Facepainting or games? Even another colouring competition like Stoneleigh but with a small fee again for the hospice?

If we are raising money should the money not be split between the MU coffers and a charity of OUR choice instead of another Club ?

It would be going to charity not another club. No other suggestions are ever made about raising any money for any charities and surely this one is as good as any other. Unless there are any other suggestions?
