Huge congratulations to the Juniors for completing their second annual sponsored erg at the weekend, and thanks to everyone who generously donated. They kept two ergs running from 16.30 on Saturday to 16.30 on Sunday, clocking up 580,193 metres and raising £4,644 (at the time of writing.)
Half of this will go to the children’s mental health charity Young Minds, and half to buying equipment for the club. Special mention to the J15 boys who had just completed the 6 day training camp, took the 05.00 to 07.30 shift on Sunday, played a football game in Sutton Courtenay, then came back for the 14.00 to 16.30 shift that afternoon.
Tired but happy. Also to the J15 girls who dashed off to the pubs with buckets and boards and came back with £96 from startled drinkers. Extra special thanks to Mattie Sizer who organised the whole event – well done Mattie!
