Title: My Society's Charity Run Post by: Charles Cater on December 06, 2008, 02:38:53 PM This year (2008) my metal detecting society did a charity run in aid of the Nightingale House Hospice for the terminally ill. As I have many photographs for you to see I can only add one at a time unless something else comes up.
A member paid for this sign to make sure we were noticed. See My Album in the Gallery section. Title: Re: My Society's Charity Run Post by: PHIL YNYSBOETH on December 06, 2008, 05:40:28 PM Hi Charles
Good idea and for a good caused to Ive been a member of a good few Motorcyce clubs over the years, sponsored walks,xmas prezzie runs and easteregg runs, it all puts the Sport/Pastime/Hobbie in a good light, Maybe we could arrange something next year and get the Forum and Welsh detecting in the papers and on the map ;0) Maybe it would alter the publics perception that Detectorists are just Grave robbing Nighthawking criminals Always willing to help Phil Jones Title: Re: My Society's Charity Run Post by: Neil on December 06, 2008, 06:06:29 PM Good on you Charles and Phil. I always do the 10k run for Kidney Research every September if anyone wants to join me, let me know - maybe we can do a DetectingWales.com team.
My mate Iestyn is the MS Society event organiser for Wales and if anyone fancies doin a parachute jump over the Mumbes in May - I'll let you have his details. cheers Neil Title: Re: My Society's Charity Run Post by: PHIL YNYSBOETH on December 08, 2008, 12:00:11 AM Thanks for the offer Neil but i havnt run since my stint in the TA many moons ago and id have difficulty leaving a perfectly good working aircraft lol
