Raffle and BBQ on 31st August

Friday 22nd Aug

Hi all

During the final day of my challenge on 31st August we're holding a raffle with some pretty good prizes including (amongst other things) a £40 voucher for the Cricketers, champagne and Silent Pool gin. You can buy raffle tickets in advance at £5 a strip or £1 each. Just donate online using the link and include the word 'raffle' in the message. I'll do the rest and email you your ticket numbers. You don't need to be there on the 31st to enter the raffle. I know I've asked a lot from you all over the last few weeks - I just need 1 final push to reach my target of £2 500.

I hope as many of you as possible can join me on 31st August at the club from 1pm till 5 for a bbq, cakes sale and some fun tennis. Dress to impress!

Thanks so much

Paul
