Sponsered Swimathon

[pooface]

Hey guys.

A few of you probably know that myself and my son go swimming on Saturdays, and this Saturday (yes, I've left it late :p), we've got a sponsored swimathon, hoping to raise money for Tommy's:


http://www.tommys.org/

If your would like to sponsor him (no matter how small, don't mind if people don't want to sponsor, just thought would put the offer out for people ;), the address to use is:

The theme for the sponsor will be Pirates, so was thinking of dressing him up with some face paint if we can find some to make him look a little like a pirate.

Cheers.

David

That's fine matey, don't worry :thumbsup:

As I said, don't want to force people to think that they have to sponsor, if people would like to, then that's fine, if not, then that's also fine :) No need to justify yourselves

I'll sponsor him m8ty. Will do later today.

Why dont you post this on public section?

[Larry-G]

yes agreed, make a post on the general forum i am certain there will be many members who will gladly put a few quid in, and it's all for a good cause too.

Thanks, but just didn't feel comfortable opening up to whole forum :p It's only a small thing we're gonna be doing, and feel uncomfortable asking for donations anyway :p

Put it in the public forum mate, its for a good cause.:thumbsup:

We did the swim this morning. Little one loved it, and had a great swim. Enjoyed doing the swim to find the treasure. Had to walk off the plank (actually, he ran off, lol), swim over to "surfers cove" where he went "surfing" on a float, then dived in the water to collect the treasure from the bottom of the pool...

So far, the running total across the country on Thursday, just counting the online sponserships, was at £133,000... So, the more money that can be raised the better!

Thanks guys :thumbsup:

I think that donations are still applicable up to a month after the event... So you should be able to follow the link in the first post when you get back if you want to donate matey. Thanks for the offer :thumbsup:
