I want to take this time to thank "Giggy" Sue Barker for hosting the "Bunfight at the Yorkshire Corral" at her house this Saturday gone. The event total isn't finalized yet, but I can say a whopping £167.50 was raised on the day! Sue - you were the perfect hostess and War on Cancer and myself love you for your support of our cause. To Sue's darling and my friend Dazzlin who bless him is probably still having nightmares after counting the chocolate raisins for the "guess how many" game!! To her daughter Molly who greeted people at the door, shared her bedroom, toys and crafts with the children that came with their mothers.....and to counting the money raised at the end of the day. Molly you were really good you little star ;)
When the final count-up is done, I will of course post it on the blog.
We are now gearing up for our charity car wash this coming Sat ( hope it's warm for all us volunteers!! ).. Hopefully it will be a great success...a busy couple of weeks for War on Cancer and it's avid supporters.
March - this is the month of re-cycling!! so lovely people - we are looking for donations of your old mobile phones - check your drawers ( ooh-err mother! ) blow off the dust and donate that "just in case" phone that is never used!!
Also, we are willing to take any unwanted gifts ( always needed for our tombolas ) and toys, books,anything you think will go at car boot sales....the weather is warming and we will be starting up regular car boots.
So please, if you have anything to re-cycle, before you throw it away, think of War on Cancer - not only will you be helping us to raise money, you will be helping the environment!!
Don't forget, if you are wanting to do the Yorkshire 3 peak challenge with us, you only have until the end of March to register or until the limited places are filled. Instructions of how to register and pay are on the blog. Check out the event details tab.
Until next time :)
