The scuba charity I'm helping out are fully fundedby donations and their main event is on August bank holiday weekend. The raft race on Saturday and the duck race on Sunday. The races take place on the river in Ripon between the navigation pub and the lamb and flag. I was wondering if any BMers would like to support us with your presence either on a raft or on land, but it's going to be a fun day, with BBQ, cakes, home made produce etc. It's only £15 to enter a raft, and the water is only waist deep. It's a charity to help those with special needs and disabilities, they need £12000 a year to keep going. It would be lovely for a huge group of bikers to come along and put smiles on those faces that need us.
No one else volunteering to float gently down a stream or buy a rubber duckie then?
I thought there would be some brave souls/extreme sports maniacs out there who would be raring to join in the fun. Afterall, duck racing can be an exhilarating experience!
I would have done it you cant beat going down a river on a sinking raft lol but due to my recent opp dont think it would be a good idea or I would be much use to anyone lol
This isnt on events as yet, TAB, or if it is i cant see it... Lol.
ROLL UP, ROLL UP ...ducks for sale! Get ya DUCKS here, All for a good cause, Going cheep, Quackly once they're gone, thats it, You would be quackers to miss this one!!
Ok - I've now put this in the events diary, and I still have 15 ducks left for sponsoring. So roll up, roll up, sponsor a duck for £1? There is a raft race, a swan race, bouncy castle, BBQ, cake stall, tombola etc on Saturday starting at 10am in Ripon - next to water rat pub! Sunday is the duck race starting at 2pm, again with stalls, BBQ, etc. This charity is wholly funded by donations, and achieves so much for so little.
sounds like an awesome fun event and id love to be there and will get if I can if not tell me where to send a donation to and I will support your charity event with pleasure
