I
am really pleased to inform you that the fund raising events held at
Putting Green Caravan Park for the EDP Breast Cancer Appeal raised a
grand total of £1080.13. I was delighted, having set myself a target of
£1000.00. The "mini fete" on 21st August raised £900.00 and
a raffle held on 28th August at the annual "Hog Roast" on the
site raised the balance of £180.13. There are so many people to thank,
those who gave their time, those who gave raffle prizes. bric-a-brac,
baked cakes, loaned tables, who advertised the event etc. etc. and of
course those who spent money!! Whatever
part you played however large or small, it was instrumental in raising
this fantastic sum. Thank you!! I
would however, like to give a special thank you to the "team"
of teenagers who helped this year as they have in the past two years
with fund raising. They are Yasmin Sopp, Kelly & Sam Lawrence, Simon
Penny, Victoria Dongworth and Nichol & Keighley Loughran, always
ready to lend a hand!! Thanks kids Reading the front page
headlines of the Eastern Daily Press on 6th September. "APPEAL HITS
ITS £200.000 TARGET" and the excitement expressed by so many people in
the article, it made me realise how things can be achieved when everyone
"pulls together", and made me proud to think our event raised
one two hundredth of this sum. Yours sincerely |
